Import Tips
• Obtain and include importer certification stating use for repacking or sale as green olives to qualify for this subheading
• Verify drained weight exceeds 8 kg per container and olives are green, unpitted, in saline (not vinegar) solution
• Avoid misclassification as retail-packed olives (2005.70.02.00) by ensuring no consumer-ready packaging
