Import Tips
• Include processing details (skinned/split) in commercial invoice; split lentils must still be fully dried to avoid 0711 classification
• Verify organic certification covers entire supply chain; test for pesticide residues if challenged by CBP
• Package in moisture-proof bags to prevent mold during transit, a common rejection cause
