Import Tips
• Include processing certificates detailing parboiling steps (soaking, steaming, drying) to substantiate classification
• Label packages clearly with 'parboiled' and milling details to match HTS description and avoid inspection delays
• Test for glaze or polish additives, as excessive treatment may require reclassification under other subheadings
