Import Tips

• Verify country of origin complies with Section 609 restrictions if involving shrimp byproducts in processing

• Provide FDA prior notice and shellfish tags for traceability; common pitfall is missing lot codes

• Label with species name (e.g

• Crassostrea gigas) and processing method to avoid misclassification
