Import Tips
• Verify container net weight does not exceed 1200 kg to qualify; overages shift to other subheadings
• Provide phytosanitary certificates confirming fresh/chilled status and freedom from pests like potato cyst nematode
• Avoid any preservative treatments like sulfur dioxide, as that would reclassify under 0711
