Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify country of origin compliance as some cassava exporters face phytosanitary restrictions; obtain certificates from approved facilities
• Label as 'frozen cassava' with starch content if marketed for processing to avoid misclassification as fresh produce
• Check for fumigation records to prevent quarantine issues at ports; common pitfall is inadequate cooling chain documentation
