Import Tips

Document hydroponic greenhouse methods in invoices to substantiate 'greenhouse' classification over field alternatives

Use refrigerated containers to maintain chilled state below 7°C, preventing shifts to non-chilled codes

Specify varietal name and average weight (<0.9 kg) on manifests to confirm 'cherry' per statistical notes
