Import Tips

• Provide detailed ingredient breakdowns and country-of-origin certificates to confirm citrus content and avoid reclassification as a generic mixture

• Check for compliance with pesticide residue limits specific to citrus imports, common pitfall leading to FDA holds

• Document net weight and container type precisely, as exceeding certain thresholds could redirect to bulk subheadings
