Import Tips
• Include origin certificates; EU or Dutch sets common—check for pesticide residue compliance under FDA
• Document size (under 25mm typical) to prevent customs disputes over set vs. fresh onion status
• Bundle with growing instructions if retail-packaged to reinforce planting use classification
