Import Tips

• Verify botanical identity via certificates of analysis to confirm Mentha species and purity for mint leaves classification

• Ensure documentation proves primary use in perfumery/pharmacy, not as finished medicaments (Chapter 30) to avoid reclassification

• Watch for common pitfalls like mislabeling as spices (Chapter 9), requiring residue testing if partially processed
