Import Tips
• Require cooling chain documentation for fresh hops to prove condition upon import and avoid spoilage claims
• Label varietal and harvest date clearly; customs may inspect for compliance with unprocessed state
• Check origin-specific quotas or seasonal restrictions, as fresh hops are perishable and regionally regulated
