Import Tips
• Verify moisture content below 13% to qualify as 'dried' and ensure phytosanitary certificates confirm no live pests
• Label accurately as 'dried split peas' to prevent reclassification; include country of origin and variety if organic
• Avoid common pitfalls like importing with added seasonings, which shifts to prepared foods in Chapter 20
