Import Tips
• Verify peppers are from Capsicum annuum variety and fully dried with moisture content below 10% to meet 'dried' criteria
• Provide phytosanitary certificates confirming no pests or diseases, as agricultural imports face strict USDA inspections
• Avoid misdeclaration as fresh produce (0709.60), which incurs different duties and quotas
