Import Tips
• Glass packaging requires shatterproof testing documentation for sea freight to minimize damage claims
• Organic claims need USDA NOP or equivalent certification; otherwise, standard food labeling applies
• Batch code traceability essential for recalls; maintain supplier records for 2+ years post-import
