Import Tips
• Verify airtight container integrity and net weight under 1kg per unit to avoid reclassification to larger container subheadings
• Provide USDA import permit and ensure labeling complies with FSMA and bilingual country-of-origin requirements
• Conduct lab testing for additives and pathogens; common pitfall is insufficient cooking proof leading to Chapter 2 reclassification
