Import Tips
• Verify the syrup is sugar-based and not a fruit juice, as juice-packed products may fall under heading 2009
• Ensure the cranberries are whole and not pureed, which could shift classification to other subheadings
• Provide a certificate of origin if claiming preferential duty treatment under a free trade agreement
