Import Tips
• Obtain lab analysis confirming amber or darker color (Pfund scale 45+ mm) to avoid reclassification to lighter honey subheadings
• Provide certificate of origin and purity testing to confirm 100% natural honey without additives, as required by FDA and CBP
• Check for pollen origin labeling requirements under country-of-origin rules to prevent misclassification pitfalls
