Import Tips
• Verify USDA or equivalent organic certification meeting General Statistical Note 6 standards prior to import
• Confirm entry dates fall within March 1-July 14 or September 1-November 14 to avoid reclassification
• Maintain cold chain documentation to prove 'fresh or chilled' status and prevent duty upgrades
