Import Tips
• Label packages clearly with 'frozen carrots' and net weight to meet FDA food labeling standards
• Ensure cold chain integrity during shipping; temperature logs prevent spoilage claims at customs
• Avoid mixing with other vegetables to prevent classification as mixtures under 0710.80.97
