Import Tips
• Verify USDA NOP or equivalent organic certification documentation from supplier to avoid reclassification
• Ensure phytosanitary certificates confirm fresh condition and freedom from pests like Mediterranean fruit fly
• Declare exact organic certification type; lack of proof leads to default non-organic lemon rates
