Import Tips

• Verify tomato content exceeds 20% and confirm it's not pure ketchup (2103.20) to avoid reclassification; provide lab analysis if needed

• Include detailed ingredient lists and production process documentation to prove it's a prepared sauce, not a basic tomato product

• Watch for quantitative limits on mixed condiments (US Note 3); ensure origin isn't Mexico for restricted entries
