Import Tips
• Verify entry date falls outside April 1-August 31 to avoid seasonal zero-duty classification under 0809.30.20
• Provide phytosanitary certificates confirming freedom from pests like Mediterranean fruit fly, required for stone fruit imports
• Avoid misdeclaration as nectarines, which share the same subheading but may have different market values
