Foods of plant origin refer to foods that come directly from plants, such as vegetables, fruits, grains, legumes, etc. Because these foods may carry various germs or harmful substances, they need to be strictly inspected and quarantined when imported. When importing foods of plant origin, a series of customs clearance documents are required to ensure the safety of the food.
First of all, the basic information that needs to be provided for the import of plant-derived food includes: packing list, invoice, ** contract, bill of lading and official inspection and quarantine certificate of plant-derived food. These materials are the basic requirements for import customs clearance, which can prove the legality and safety of imported food.
However, there are some special requirements for different foods of plant origin.

In addition to the above-mentioned information, the packaging of imported plant-derived food must also indicate the country of origin, product name, enterprise registration number, name and address of the manufacturer, and the production date and shelf life. Missing this information may be considered a violation by customs, resulting in penalties such as detention or fines for imported food. To avoid this, importers need to ensure that the food they are importing complies with all relevant regulations and that all necessary filing processes are completed in advance.
