• Confirm moisture content below 20% for dried classification; provide lab analysis if requested by customs
• Include commercial invoice detailing drying method (air-dried only) to prevent reclassification as preserved
• Ensure FDA prior notice filing for food imports and check for aflatoxin testing requirements
