Import Tips
• Verify botanical identification as Xanthosoma spp. with certificates of origin or lab analysis to confirm yautia classification
• Ensure pellets are solely dried without additives to avoid reclassification under provisional preservation headings like 0711
• Provide documentation on starch content (> high starch per chapter) and processing method to prevent misclassification as fresh or frozen
