Import Tips
• Include detailed ingredient lists on packaging to meet FDA requirements for potential allergens like citrus
• Confirm no quantitative restrictions apply as this is under the 'other' mixed seasonings category
• Use proper HTS documentation to differentiate from single-spice imports avoiding higher mixed blend duties
