Import Tips & Compliance

Confirm variety is not Kadota to avoid reclassification; provide commercial invoices specifying 'whole dried Black Mission figs'

Comply with FDA prior notice requirements for dried fruits; ensure no added sulfites unless declared, as they trigger additional labeling

Watch for weight declarations—net weight of dried figs only, excluding packaging—to prevent valuation disputes at customs
