Import Tips
• Verify moisture content below 20% to qualify as 'dried fruit' rather than fresh or frozen under Chapter 7 or 8
• Provide phytosanitary certificates confirming treatment meets USDA requirements for dried berries
• Label packages with country of origin and processing method to avoid misclassification as mixtures under 0813.40.90
