Import Tips
• Verify rhizomes are intact and neither crushed nor ground to qualify under 0910.11.00; damaged goods may shift to ground category
• Provide phytosanitary certificates to prove freedom from pests and impurities, as impure spices are prohibited under 21 U.S.C. 41
• Label accurately as 'ginger rhizomes' and check origin for duty-free entry from FTA countries like Australia or Canada
