Import Tips

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
