CO Treatment: Import Compliance by Market
Carbon monoxide (CO) treatment helps tuna retain a bright red color during frozen storage. Its legal status varies significantly by destination market — always confirm current requirements with your import compliance team before ordering:
| Market | Status |
|---|---|
| United States | Legal (FDA GRAS status), must be labeled/declared |
| European Union | Banned |
| Japan | Banned |
| Canada | Banned |
| China, Singapore, Taiwan | Banned |
"Vitamin Treated" refers to the use of ascorbic acid (vitamin C), a declared antioxidant used alongside CO treatment to help maintain color stability.
