Import Tips

• Include processing details (pasteurization temp/time) in documentation to prove preparation status beyond simple cooking

• Label with country of origin and species; pitfall is generic 'scallop' labeling leading to CBP queries

• Check for EU export certificates if from regulated waters to meet U.S. import safety standards
