Import Tips
• Screen for contaminants like ochratoxin A, as FDA has specific defect action levels for green coffee
• Use proper humidity-controlled containers to prevent mold during transit of unroasted beans
• Document moisture content (typically 10-12%) to support quality claims and avoid reclassification
