Import Tips

Verify phytosanitary certificates confirming freedom from pests like cochineal insects, required for all fresh cactus pear imports

Ensure fruits are truly fresh and unpeeled; peeled or processed pears shift to HTS 0813 or 0814

Declare varietal details if requested; misclassification as generic fresh fruit risks penalties
