Import Tips

• Verify entry date falls within March 1-July 14 or September 1-November 14 to qualify under this code; off-season imports shift to 0710.80.90.00

• Provide documentation proving tomatoes are frozen solely for preservation (uncooked, steamed, or boiled), not further processed

• Avoid misclassification by confirming no additives beyond basic freezing; include lab tests if disputed
