Import Tips

• Use FDA Prior Notice filing for all frozen berry shipments to prevent detention at ports

• Test for pesticide residues as wild berries may have natural contaminants; provide lab analysis if requested by CBP

• Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring as cultivated to evade higher duties—wild certification is audited
