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. CO treatment is legal in the United States under FDA GRAS status, but must be labeled and declared. It is banned in the European Union, Japan, Canada, China, Singapore and Taiwan.

"Vitamin Treated" refers to the use of ascorbic acid (vitamin C), a declared antioxidant used alongside CO treatment to help maintain color stability.
