Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify organic certification against General Statistical Note 6 standards and include certificates in documentation to avoid reclassification

• Confirm entry date between November 15 and last day of February; off-season entries shift to other subheadings like 0702.00.40

• Ensure phytosanitary certificates confirm greenhouse origin and freedom from pests, as fresh tomatoes face strict USDA inspections
