Import Tips & Compliance
• Document pasteurization and flash-freezing processes to prove it's unfermented juice, not a beverage base
• Check for varietal labeling (e.g
• Hamlin vs
• Valencia) as seasonal differences affect Brix and duty verification
• Avoid common pitfall of incomplete Bill of Lading details on container size, leading to exam holds
