Import Tips
• Document varietal origin (clementine) precisely, as hybrids must match the subheading's listed citrus types
• Ensure no visible pulp remains, as pulp content could reclassify under general fruit preparations in 2008.99
• Comply with country-of-origin marking; citrus peels from certain regions may face additional phytosanitary checks
