Dried Baby Lima Beans (Large Variety) from Canada

These are dried, shelled baby lima beans of a larger cultivar (Phaseolus lunatus), not qualifying as the smallest 'baby' type, imported during the May-August quota. Classified in HTS 0713.39.21.40 as 'other lima beans' since they are simply dried and shelled without further processing.

Import Tips

Use precise varietal naming in entry docs to distinguish from true baby limas (0713.39.21.20); ambiguity leads to audits

Store in cool, dry conditions post-import to prevent mold; declare moisture content under 14% for compliance

Check for quota fill status via USDA reports before shipping to avoid unexpected out-of-quota duties
