Import Tips & Compliance

Verify entry date against USDA quota periods (typically July-June) to confirm 0713.33.4050 applicability; in-season may qualify for lower-duty 0713.33.20

Provide phytosanitary certificate confirming freedom from pests like bruchid beetles, as required for dried legumes

Include detailed variety documentation (light red color specs) to avoid reclassification; common pitfall is mislabeling as dark red kidney
