Import Tips
• Provide supplier declarations confirming wild-harvested Cantharellus species to distinguish from other genera
• Inspect for contaminants; common pitfall is mislabeling toxic look-alikes, leading to FDA rejection
• Declare accurate weights and origins; seasonal imports from Canada or Europe require prior notice to APHIS
