Import Tips
• Provide commercial invoice detailing variety (cultivated vs wild) to prevent shifts to other berry subheadings
• Comply with metal can safety standards; test for BPA if targeted by FDA prior notice
• Watch for pectin addition which could reclassify as jam-like under 2007 if viscosity increases significantly
