Import Tips & Compliance

Provide USDA or equivalent organic certification documentation at entry to verify compliance with General Statistical Note 6

Ensure berries are packed in consumer-ready clamshells or pints, not bulk flats, to avoid reclassification as 'for processing'

Maintain cold chain documentation showing temperatures below 4°C to prevent phytosanitary issues and spoilage claims
