Import Tips
• Include commercial invoice detailing pack size and 'retail packaged' to prevent bulk reclassification
• Comply with FSMA rules for traceability; provide grower lot codes for potential recalls
• Watch for trim levels; excessive trimming might trigger 'processed' scrutiny under customs rulings
