Import Tips

Verify USDA NOP or equivalent organic certification matching General Statistical Note 6 approved standards; include certificate of analysis with shipment

Ensure phytosanitary certificate confirms pest-free status, as squash is subject to APHIS import restrictions for fresh produce

Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling non-organic as certified organic, which can lead to seizures; declare exact weight and variety accurately
