Import Tips

Confirm Scoville heat units via testing to distinguish from milder Capsicum varieties and prevent reclassification

Use phytosanitary certificates to prove freedom from pests, as agricultural products face strict USDA scrutiny

Avoid retail packaging under 2.3kg if containers are dutiable; opt for bulk to simplify duty calculation
