Import Tips

• Use ISF filing 24 hours prior to loading; declare HTS precisely to avoid seasonal tariff misapplication

• Maintain 90-95% humidity in reefer containers to prevent shrivel and ensure fresh condition on arrival

• Separate red from green/white grapes in mixed shipments to prevent commingling and classification disputes
