Import Tips
• Verify dry weight content is under 7% to avoid reclassification as tomato juice under heading 2002
• Provide lab analysis certificates confirming no vinegar or acetic acid addition for smooth customs clearance
• Label with Brix value if applicable, and ensure packaging details match 'other puree' criteria to prevent audits
