Import Tips
• Declare preservation method (e.g
• oil-packed) clearly to affirm Chapter 20 scope without fermentation
• Provide nutritional analysis if marketed as low-sugar; avoid claims triggering dietetic subheadings like 2007.10
• Watch for spirit addition, which could move to spirit-containing provisions elsewhere in Chapter 22
