Importation of Fresh Peppers From Ecuador Into the United States
We are amending the fruits and vegetables regulations to allow the importation of fresh peppers into the United States from Ecuador.

The fruit will also be required to be imported in commercial consignments and accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate issued by the national plant protection organization of Ecuador stating that the consignment was produced and prepared for export in accordance with the requirements in the systems approach.
