Import Tips
• 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
