Import Tips
• Provide USDA or equivalent organic certification documentation at entry to verify 'certified organic' status per statistical notes
• Ensure cold chain compliance with temperature logs below 4°C to maintain 'fresh or chilled' classification and prevent spoilage claims
• Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as non-organic; phytosanitary certificates required for asparagus from most origins
