Import Tips
• Include detailed ingredient breakdowns to prove primary tomato/chili content and avoid misclassification as spice mixes
• Ensure FDA prior notice for acidified foods and test pH levels for low-acid compliance during import
• Label clearly as 'other tomato sauce' to prevent shifts to higher-duty pepper sauce codes
