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
