Import Tips
• Use phytosanitary certificates confirming no pests common to brassicas; organic status heightens scrutiny
• Separate organic from conventional in storage/shipping to prevent cross-contamination claims
• Monitor transit time under 7 days post-harvest to maintain 'fresh or chilled' eligibility
