Import Tips
• Include organic certification documentation from approved standards (GSN 6) to avoid reclassification as conventional
• Ensure cold chain maintenance during shipping to preserve freshness, preventing rejection at entry
• Label clearly as 'organic' only if certified; mislabeling leads to penalties
