Import Tips
• Label shipments clearly as 'fresh greenhouse peppers' to prevent reclassification; include grower's greenhouse certification
• Comply with FDA prior notice requirements for fresh produce, specifying variety and origin to avoid holds at entry
• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as organic without USDA or equivalent certification, as it affects statistical reporting
