Import Tips
• Verify entry timing against USDA quota periods to confirm 0713.39.41.50 applicability and avoid misclassification penalties
• Provide phytosanitary certificates proving beans are dried, shelled, and free from pests/quarantine issues
• Label packages with country of origin, lot number, and 'not for sprouting' if applicable to prevent reclassification
