Import Tips

• Obtain FDA prior notice for perishable frozen goods and ensure cold chain integrity from port to destination

• Include lab tests for pesticide residues, as taro is prone to chemical uptake in tropical farming

• Avoid misdeclaration as potatoes; specify 'taro (Colocasia spp.)' clearly in commercial invoices
