Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify exact composition to confirm crab is the primary ingredient and shrimp qualifies as 'fish meat'; provide lab analysis if challenged
• Ensure labeling complies with FDA seafood HACCP and country-of-origin rules for mixed aquatic species
• Avoid misclassification as plain crabmeat (1605.10.0530) by documenting rice and other non-crab components
