Import Tips
• Verify country of origin documentation as pineapple duties vary by Free Trade Agreements like USMCA or CAFTA-DR
• Ensure phytosanitary certificates confirm frozen state to avoid reclassification as fresh fruit
• Label net weight excluding added sugar syrup to comply with FDA food labeling requirements
