Import Tips
• Label clearly as 'elephant garlic' and confirm botanical classification as alliaceous to match HTS description
• Inspect for uniform whole cloves without separation or damage, as broken pieces may shift to other subheadings
• Comply with FDA prior notice requirements for fresh produce to avoid holds at US ports
