Import Tips
• Submit commercial invoice detailing jar capacity and fill weight to confirm airtight status
• Ensure jars meet FDA glass packaging standards to prevent breakage claims during transit
• Avoid misdeclaration by specifying 'cooked and preserved' vs. 'pasteurized' if not heat-treated post-canning
