Import Tips
• Include lab tests for residual sulfur levels if flame-dried, as high levels may trigger food safety reclassification
• Use ventilated containers to prevent mold during transit, common pitfall for high-sugar dried fruits
• Declare varietal name accurately; mislabeling as 'sultanas' could lead to duty disputes
