Import Tips
• Include USDA or equivalent organic certification documentation to qualify for organic statistical reporting
• Declare moisture content below 14% to confirm dried status; higher levels may reclassify as fresh (0708)
• Label packages with country of origin and varietal name to prevent disputes over 'Great Northern' specificity
