Import Tips
• Verify moisture content is below 13% to confirm classification as dried under Chapter 07; higher moisture may shift to fresh vegetable codes
• Provide certificate of analysis showing no further preparation like oil coating or flavoring to avoid reclassification
• Ensure proper phytosanitary certificates as dried vegetables can still harbor pests
