Import Tips
• Label shipments clearly as 'black variety' to match tariff description and avoid reclassification
• Comply with cold treatment requirements for Mediterranean fruit fly if sourced from affected regions
• Monitor for varietal purity; misidentification as red/purple could lead to wrong HTS code
