Import Tips
• Confirm varietal identity via supplier certificates; Perlette's green hue distinguishes it from red types
• Maintain cold chain (32-36°F) during transit to preserve freshness and avoid reclassification as preserved
• Declare net weight excluding stems; watch for over 10% raisining which could shift to dried category
