Importing Fish & Meat to USA

Hello, we want to ship Bacon Wrapped Scallops from Canada to USA.

 

Will we require a meat processing license to do this?  

 

In Canada the Bacon is an ingredient, we do not process it,  just add as an ingredient.

 

Anyone forsee larger issue with this? 

 

 

Thanks !

https://www.fda.gov/...rts-and-exports            This should help---if the importer is licensed , looks like you don't need an FDA license/registration........but don't quote me

 

FDA is not authorized under the law to approve, certify, license, or otherwise sanction individual food importers, products, labels, or shipments. Importers can import foods into the United States without prior sanction by FDA, as long as the facilities that produce, store, or otherwise handle the products are registered with FDA, and prior notice of incoming shipments is provided to FDA.

 

Imported food products are subject to FDA inspection when offered for import at U.S. ports of entry. FDA may detain shipments of products offered for import if the shipments are found not to be in compliance with U.S. requirements. Both imported and domestically-produced foods must meet the same legal requirements in the United States.
