Import Tips
• Verify supplier's organic certification aligns with US standards to avoid CBP scrutiny and potential reclassification
• Maintain cold chain documentation for chilled beans to prove they remain fresh and not preserved
• Watch for misdeclaration as dried; inspect moisture content to stay in fresh/chilled category
