Effective October 1, 2025, all certified organic imports into the U.S. must be accompanied by a valid National Organic Program Import Certificate (NOPIC) issued by the exporting certifier prior to shipment. Shipments arriving without a valid NOPIC cannot be reconditioned and must be:
- Reexported (with CBP 7512 and Export Booking Confirmation retained)
- Donated (only by certified importers, with documentation)
- Destroyed (with an official CBP Certificate of Destruction)
Please ensure compliance to avoid delays, penalties, or loss of goods.
For full details and official guidance, please visit the AMS Organics FAQ page.
Due to the rapidly changing application and modifications of duty rates, please note that Deringer is not responsible for coordinating the timing of U.S. entry and imposed tariff rates.
