Import Tips
• Provide detailed invoices specifying 'white Bermuda' variety and weight per unit to match statistical reporting requirements
• Comply with FDA prior notice for fresh produce imports, declaring as 'onions, white varieties' 72 hours before arrival
• Avoid common pitfall of bunching with shallots; pure white onion shipments prevent reclassification
