Import Tips
• Verify invoice value per kg does not exceed 22¢ with detailed weight and pricing documentation to avoid reclassification
• Obtain phytosanitary certificates confirming freedom from pests like codling moth, required for all fresh apple imports
• Monitor seasonal quotas and ensure cold chain compliance to prevent spoilage claims at customs
