Import Tips
• Label packages clearly as 'flavored' and specify organic certifier to match HTS description and prevent misclassification as unflavored
• Check origin country for container duty exemptions on tea packs <2.3kg from FTA partners like Mexico or Singapore
• Maintain purity documentation as impure tea imports are banned; include lab test results
