Import Tips & Compliance
• Include processing details (e.g
• bleaching method) in invoices to confirm it's ground cardamom, not a different spice
• Use food-grade packaging; avoid containers under 2.3kg if not from duty-free territories to prevent separate dutiability
• Conduct microbial testing as common pitfall for ground spices leading to FDA holds
