Import Tips
• Document blanching and freezing process to confirm 'uncooked or steamed/boiled' status per heading requirements
• Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring as whole beans; measure slice dimensions for proof of size reduction
• Ensure country-of-origin labeling; EU-sourced beans may have different pesticide residue rules
