Import Tips

• File FDA Prior Notice for legumes; specify canning end-use to prevent food facility registration issues

• Use bulk totes over 50kg to qualify as non-retail; retail packs may trigger different duty treatment

• Monitor absolute quota (if applicable); over-quota enters at higher general rate—check USDA updates
