Import Tips
• Verify entry timing against quota periods to confirm classification under 0713.39.41.30; otherwise, it may fall under in-quota codes like 0713.33
• Provide certificates of origin and phytosanitary certificates to meet USDA import requirements for dried legumes
• Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as fresh or canned beans, which shifts to Chapter 07 or 20
