Import Tips
• Verify peas are fresh or chilled (below 7°C) and unshelled to qualify; provide temperature logs during transit
• Include phytosanitary certificates confirming freedom from pests like pea leaf weevil, common in imports
• Avoid misclassification as frozen (0710.21) by ensuring no freezing; inspect for spoilage at entry
