Import Tips

• Label clearly as ground Lippia spp. to distinguish from 0910.99.20 origanum; include milling process details in entry docs

• For Puerto Rico-sourced, note US statistical exception under 0901-0902 but confirm applicability to 0910 via CBP ruling

• Avoid pepper shell contamination, as prohibited; conduct microbial testing to meet FDA spice standards
