Import Tips
• Verify botanical classification as Vigna unguiculata via supplier certificates to avoid misclassification as other beans
• Ensure compliance with phytosanitary requirements; provide fumigation certificates for dried legumes to prevent pest issues
• Label moisture content below 14% to confirm 'dried' status and avoid reclassification under fresh vegetable headings
