Four hours maximum. Four hours at room temperature is too long. Potentially hazardous food should not be kept out for more than 2 hours. And if the ambient temperature is around 90°F, cut that time to 1 hour.

As with other foods, up to five days at under 40 degrees. Remember you count from when you unthawed it or brought it home. With shellfish, it would be better to shorten the time for safety's sake.

The sooner defrosted shrimp are cooked after being exposed to room temperatures, the better. Fresh shrimp should be OK for a few hours, since they will be immersed in boiling water after being peeled.

The problem with frozen shrimp is that you do not know what conditions they were exposed to before they were frozen -- or re-frozen.
