Import Tips

Obtain FDA Prior Notice via ACE system at least 2 hours before arrival; include lot codes and roast date on labels

Verify container net weight ≤2kg and retail-ready packaging to qualify; bulk packs shift to 0901.21.0000

Include certificate of origin for Arabica verification; common pitfall is mislabeling as Robusta which falls under different stats
