Import Tips
• Verify the vegetable is frozen without additional preservatives beyond freezing to stay in Chapter 07; check for compliance with FDA prior notice requirements
• Ensure country of origin labeling and provide certificates confirming no size reduction beyond standard chopping
• Avoid misclassification as mixtures if blended with other veggies; common pitfall is declaring as puree
