Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify parboiling certification and long grain status (kernels >6mm) via lab testing to confirm HTS 1006.30.10.20 classification
• Provide phytosanitary certificates from exporting country to meet USDA APHIS requirements for rice imports
• Label accurately as 'parboiled' to avoid reclassification; common pitfall is mislabeling as non-parboiled leading to higher duties
