Import Tips

Ensure grapes are chilled but not frozen during transit to maintain 'fresh' status and avoid 0806.10.20 classification

Include commercial invoice specifying entry date, variety, and origin country to track against quota limits

Conduct residue testing for pesticides; non-compliant shipments face rejection or duty penalties
