Import Tips
• Use photos and supplier specs to prove 'green in color' and 'pitted but not stuffed' for binding ruling requests
• Avoid common error of classifying as 'stuffed' if minor seasoning present; stuffing requires embedded fillings
• Ensure phytosanitary certificate for olive fly control, especially from Mediterranean origins
