Import Tips
• Ensure supplier provides traceable organic certification from accredited bodies like USDA NOP or EU equivalents
• Avoid ethylene exposure from nearby fruits to prevent premature yellowing during refrigerated container shipping
• File entries promptly; fresh vegetables have short shelf life, delaying clearance risks spoilage claims
