Import Tips
• Include commercial invoice detailing harvest date, entry date, and air carrier to substantiate seasonal and transport qualifications
• Label bundles clearly with country of origin and 'keep refrigerated' to maintain fresh/chilled status through customs
• Watch for reclassification if asparagus shows dehydration signs, potentially moving to dried vegetable headings
