Import Tips
• Verify USDA NOP or equivalent organic certification documentation at entry to qualify for this HTS code; lack of certification shifts to non-organic subheadings
• Confirm entry dates fall within March 1-July 14 or September 1-November 14; off-season imports classify under different seasonal provisions
• Provide proof of greenhouse production (e.g
• grower affidavits) to distinguish from field-grown; misclassification risks audits and penalties
