Import Tips
• Verify cherries are sweet varieties (e.g
• Bing, Lambert) via supplier certificates; sour varieties go to 0811.90.80.20
• Provide documentation confirming no added sugar if declared unsweetened to avoid reclassification
• Ensure phytosanitary certificates for fruit imports to prevent quarantine issues
