Import Tips
• Ensure the roots are not mixed with other ingredients or packaged as herbal tea in bags, which would fall under 1211.20.10
• Declare the product as 'ginseng roots, dried, for pharmaceutical use' to avoid misclassification
• Keep documentation of the botanical species (Panax ginseng) for CBSA verification
