Import Tips
• Use tamper-evident packaging and include 'best by' dates to satisfy FDA shelf-life requirements
• Submit photos or samples if CBP questions purity; pure pastes avoid mixture subheadings
• Watch for misdeclaration as 'baby food' which has different rates; ensure general retail labeling
