Import Tips
• Include fumigation certificates if shipped in bulk bags to meet quarantine rules for pulse imports
• Avoid mixing varieties in one shipment to prevent reclassification or valuation issues at entry
• Check for varietal-specific quotas, as some lentils face tariff-rate quotas under trade agreements
