Import Tips

• Include processing logs showing only boiling/salting to defend against 'otherwise prepared' challenges

• Ensure immediate containers are truly airtight; leaks can lead to spoilage claims or reclassification

• Batch-test for contaminants per FDA guidelines, as shellfish imports face heightened scrutiny
