Import Tips
• Provide heat level (Scoville) documentation if marketing as spicy to aid customs valuation and labeling
• Confirm no vinegar in brine via pH testing certificates to prevent shift to 2009 headings
• Inspect for foreign matter in peppers, as CBP often scrutinizes stuffed vegetable imports for contaminants
