Import Tips
• Ensure lab testing confirms single fruit origin and no fermentation to prevent shifts to other headings
• Use proper FDA prior notice for juice imports; pitfall is inadequate pasteurization proof
• Declare exact Brix if measured, as it affects quality perception though not classification here
