Import Tips

Verify origin certification to confirm wild/lowbush status, as cultivated highbush blueberries classify differently under 0811.90.20.06

Ensure phytosanitary certificates from exporting countries meet USDA APHIS requirements for frozen berries to avoid quarantine

Label packages clearly with 'wild blueberries' and any added sugar content to comply with FDA food labeling standards
