Import Tips
• Obtain phytosanitary certificates from exporting country verifying freedom from pests like grape phylloxera
• Declare entry timing accurately; July-August entries shift to different statistical suffixes
• Avoid misclassification as dried grapes (0806.20) which have separate rates and require moisture content verification
