Import Tips

• Document variety (Lady Finger) to distinguish from plantains, ensuring correct subheading under dried bananas

• Check for aflatoxin levels, common in tropical dried fruits; US FDA requires testing below 20 ppb

• Package in bulk for Chapter 8; retail packaging may trigger value-based duty adjustments
