Import Tips

• Provide USDA or equivalent organic certification per General Statistical Note 6; label as 'certified organic' accurately

• Ensure cold chain integrity to maintain fresh/chilled status; temperature violations can trigger reclassification

• Declare exact varietal name if requested, as sugar snap peas must match Pisum sativum with edible pods
