Import Tips

Verify truffles are solely dried (no oil infusion or cooking) to qualify under 0712; further prepared items shift to Chapter 20

Provide certificates of origin and phytosanitary certificates to clear USDA inspections for fungal imports

Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as fresh (0709) which triggers different duties and quotas
