Import Tips & Compliance

Verify Brix value using a calibrated refractometer at 20°C and include lab certification in documentation to confirm it does not exceed 20

Provide proof of single citrus fruit origin (e.g

orange only) to avoid reclassification as mixed juices under 2009.39

Label containers clearly with concentration ratio and reconstitution instructions to meet FDA food safety standards
