Import Tips
• Verify varietal classification as yellow non-sweet through supplier certification to avoid reclassification to sweet onion subheadings
• Ensure cold chain compliance during transport to maintain 'fresh or chilled' status and prevent duty shifts to dried vegetables
• Provide phytosanitary certificates from origin country to meet USDA import requirements for alliaceous vegetables
