Import Tips & Compliance
• Document the exact preservation method (brine/sulfur water) and confirm suitability only for storage/transport per heading 0812 note
• Test for immediate consumption viability; if edible as-is, it risks reclassification to Chapter 20 prepared fruits
• Use bulk shipping containers to emphasize provisional nature, avoiding consumer-ready packaging
