Import Tips
• Provide fumigation certificates if wood-smoked to meet phytosanitary requirements for spice imports
• Label accurately as 'sweet smoked paprika' to distinguish from hot varieties and prevent misclassification
• Avoid pepper shells contamination, as their importation is prohibited, which could lead to shipment rejection
