Import Tips
• Label containers clearly with variety, weight, and origin to facilitate customs inspection and avoid reclassification
• Comply with USDA APHIS import requirements, including inspection for soil residue which can trigger quarantines
• Monitor temperature logs during transit to ensure 'chilled' status without freezing, preventing shift to frozen categories
