Import Tips
• Verify the mushrooms are in a state unsuitable for immediate consumption, such as packed in brine without added seasonings
• Provide certificates confirming treatment is solely for provisional preservation (e.g
• no cooking or flavorings)
• Ensure proper labeling of preservative solutions to avoid reclassification as ready-to-eat under Chapter 20
