Import Tips

• Include botanical origin (tara pods) in docs to affirm vegetable extract status vs synthetic under Chapter 29 exclusion

• For wine industry imports, align with TTB requirements; test for pesticide residues typical in plant extracts

• Avoid pitfall of generic 'tannin' labeling—specify 'tannic acid' and % to secure correct 10-digit HTS
