Import Tips
• Document hydroponic/greenhouse production with grower certificates to distinguish from field crops and secure correct duty
• Avoid common error of generic labeling—specify variety and treatment (fresh/chilled) on all docs
• Prepare for fumigation if pests detected; greenhouse produce often requires clean import permits
