Import Tips
• Include lab analysis for species (e.g
• opilio vs bairdi) to prevent reclassification during customs exam
• Declare processing method clearly; pasteurization distinguishes from fresh/frozen under Chapter 3
• Monitor country-specific quotas or AD/CVD orders on snow crab from certain origins like Russia
