Import Tips
• License branded variety names like Jazz with trademark documentation to prevent counterfeiting claims at entry
• Maintain cold chain (0-4°C) with reefer container logs to prove freshness compliance
• Avoid blending with lower-value apples in shipments to prevent average valuation dropping below threshold
