Import Tips

Verify phytosanitary certificates confirming freedom from pests like spotted wing drosophila, a common issue for blackberries

Maintain cold chain documentation (below 4°C) to prove freshness upon arrival and avoid reclassification as preserved fruit

Label clearly as 'fresh blackberries' to prevent misclassification; include country of origin and harvest date
