Import Tips & Compliance

• Label shipments clearly with organic certifier details and greenhouse proof to prevent reclassification

• Monitor temperature logs to ensure 'fresh or chilled' status, avoiding provisional preservation rules

• Avoid common pitfall of mixing with field-grown; document greenhouse cultivation explicitly
