Import Tips
• Include color photographs or variety certification in documentation to confirm 'red varieties' status versus green/white types
• Ensure cold chain compliance (0-4°C) during transit to maintain fresh status and prevent reclassification as preserved fruit
• Avoid bulk bin packing; use ventilated containers to distinguish from processed or preserved grapes
