Import Tips & Compliance

โ€ข Verify entry dates fall within March 1-July 14 or September 1-November 14 to qualify under this code; off-season entries shift to other subheadings

โ€ข Provide botanical certificates confirming 'grape' variety (small, oblong shape) as statistical notes define round tomatoes separately

โ€ข Avoid common pitfalls like declaring as cherry tomatoes, which may require size/weight proof under 0702.00.40
