Import Tips
• Include botanical identification in documentation to confirm snow peas qualify as 'peas' under tariff definition
• Ensure cold chain integrity during shipping; temperature logs prevent spoilage claims at customs
• Avoid adding sauces or seasonings, as that could reclassify to mixtures under 2004.90.93
