Import Tips
• Verify extra virgin certification via chemical analysis (acidity <0.8%) and sensory evaluation to meet HTS 1509.20 criteria
• Include certificate of origin from EU producers and ensure container net weight declaration for sub-18kg compliance
• Avoid misdeclaration as virgin oil; common pitfall leads to reclassification and penalties
