Import Tips
• Provide organic certification (e.g
• USDA NOP equivalent) and ensure no GMO content, as organic status affects labeling and potential rebates
• Separate organic shipments to prevent cross-contamination; customs may inspect for synthetic residues
• Document chain-of-custody from farm to port to substantiate organic claims during CBP review
