Import Tips
• Confirm varietal identity via botanical certification as Phaseolus spp. to prevent shift to Vigna subheadings
• Store in cool, dry conditions post-import to maintain provisional preservation without entering 0711
• Watch for fumigation residues that could trigger FDA scrutiny or reclassification
