Import Tips
• Provide production process documentation showing heat treatment at atmospheric pressure to confirm heading 2007 applicability
• Test for pectin/gel structure to distinguish from purees; CBP often challenges jelly vs paste classifications
• Ensure no added spirit (>0.5% vol) to prevent shift to chapter 22 per note to heading 2009
