Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify USDA NOP organic certification documentation to match 'certified organic' statistical requirements; mismatches lead to reclassification
• Ensure temperature logs for chilled transport to prove 'fresh or chilled' status and avoid provisional preservation rules of heading 0711
• Declare greenhouse origin accurately; common pitfall is mislabeling field-grown as greenhouse, triggering audits
