Import Tips
• Verify botanical identification as Citrus latifolia to distinguish from key limes under 0805.50.20
• Provide phytosanitary certificates confirming fresh condition and freedom from pests like Mediterranean fruit fly
• Avoid common pitfalls by ensuring limes are not treated for preservation, which would shift to Chapter 08 heading 0812
