Import Tips
• Verify decaffeination certification and residual caffeine levels below 0.1% to confirm classification under 0901.22.00; provide lab test reports if requested by CBP
• Label packages clearly with 'decaffeinated' and net weight; ensure compliance with FDA food import regulations including prior notice via ACE
• Avoid misclassification as unroasted by documenting roast level; common pitfall is importing lightly roasted beans that resemble green coffee
