Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify USDA NOP or equivalent organic certification with Certificate of Analysis (CoA) matching shipment details to avoid reclassification
• Maintain cold chain (0-4°C) documentation to prove 'fresh or chilled' status and prevent duty shifts to preserved vegetables
• Declare exact variety and weight; common pitfall is mixing organic/non-organic lots leading to full shipment rejection
