Import Tips

Verify beans are from Vigna or Phaseolus spp. and reduced in size (e.g

cut or diced) via supplier certificates to match HTS 0710.22.40.10

Ensure proper cold chain documentation to prove frozen state upon import and avoid reclassification as fresh vegetables

Label packages clearly with 'frozen' and net weight; common pitfall is moisture loss during transit leading to weight disputes
