Import Tips & Compliance
• Test moisture content below 7% to qualify as 'dried'; higher moisture may reclassify as fresh with stricter perishability rules
• Use ventilated containers to prevent mold; common pitfall is condensation from temperature swings during ocean freight
• Label origin clearly (e.g
• Philippines, Indonesia) as major producers; facilitates quota verification if applicable
