Import Tips
• Korean pine nuts may require specific quarantine treatments due to regional pest risks; check USDA import alerts
• Document moisture content to prove 'dried' status and prevent reclassification as fresh produce
• Batch testing for aflatoxin levels is common; maintain certificates for FDA and customs clearance
