Import Tips

Distinguish from Napa cabbage (0704.10.20) by leaf structure in customs declarations to prevent subheading errors

Require import permits for Asian brassicas due to potential pest risks like diamondback moth

Bundle securely; loose leaves can lead to damage claims and valuation disputes
