Import Tips
• Verify supplier certification that berries are cultivated highbush variety, not wild lowbush, to match 0813.40.20.20 classification
• Include lab analysis for moisture content (typically under 18%) and phytosanitary certificates to avoid customs delays
• Label packages with country of origin and 'dried cultivated blueberries' to comply with FDA food labeling rules
