Import Tips
• Verify the beans are fully shelled and dried prior to canning to avoid misclassification under fresh or in-shell codes
• Provide lab analysis confirming no vinegar or acetic acid used in preservation, as this shifts to heading 2001
• Ensure labeling specifies 'canned dried' to distinguish from rehydrated products that may fall under other subheadings
