Import Tips
• Include lab analysis or supplier certification confirming breading percentage exceeds minimal coating to avoid raw shrimp classification
• Ensure country of origin labeling and Section 609 certification; common pitfall is inadequate proof of non-airtight packaging
• Declare exact species (e.g
• Litopenaeus vannamei) to match Chapter 3 references per subheading note
