• Conduct moisture and purity tests to ensure compliance with food safety standards for ground spices
• Label clearly as 'ground Capsicum chinense' to match HTS description and prevent misclassification
• Check for pesticide residues, as CBP often inspects Capsicum imports for agricultural compliance
