Import Tips

• Provide lab analysis confirming moisture content below 20% to validate 'dried' status

• Label clearly as 'dried salted' to distinguish from fresh/chilled; include harvest origin for traceability

• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as 'flours/meals' which require heading 0309 if fit for human consumption
