Import Tips
• Weigh samples to ensure under 0.9 kg per statistical note; larger rounds go to 0702.00.20.81
• Use refrigerated containers maintaining 4-10°C to preserve freshness without triggering provisional preservation rules
• Declare accurately as 'other' not globe/slicing if over size limits to prevent duty reassessment
