Import Tips
• Ensure the fruit is fresh and not chilled, as chilled fruits are classified under the same headings as fresh per Chapter Note 2
• Verify that the cactus pears are not inedible, as Chapter Note 1 excludes inedible nuts or fruits
• Declare the correct weight including packaging, as supplementary notes may apply to certain headings, though not specifically to 0810.90.00
