Prepared or Preserved Crustaceans, N.E.S.

Canned, pasteurized, and otherwise preserved shrimp, crab, lobster, and other crustaceans represent a commercially significant import category for US retail and foodservice buyers. Several crustacean products — particularly shrimp and crab from major Asian suppliers — have been subject to antidumping and countervailing duty orders, making origin verification and AD/CVD scope analysis a routine part of entry planning. FDA prior notice and seafood HACCP documentation are required for all shipments, and certain species may trigger additional review under CITES or state-level import restrictions. Importers should confirm whether active trade-remedy orders cover the specific species, processing method, and country of origin before finalizing sourcing arrangements.
