5 things every US coffee importer must have ready before their first shipment:
1️⃣ Registered Importer of Record (IOR) with CBP
Your IOR must be on file before your shipment is manifest. No IOR = no clearance.
2️⃣ FDA Prior Notice filed
Must be submitted to FDA before the vessel arrives at a US port. Late filing = shipment hold.
3️⃣ Phytosanitary Certificate from origin country
Required for all plant-based products including green coffee. Issued by the country's agricultural authority.
4️⃣ FSVP-qualified importer on file
Under FDA's FSMA, a qualified FSVP importer must be designated for every food import. Qualification has specific documentation requirements.
5️⃣ DUNS-verified supplier documentation
Credible import compliance starts at the source. Unverified suppliers can create CBP holds and FDA inspection flags.
InGain handles items 1, 2, and 4 as part of our standard service — and requires item 5 from every supplier we work with.

Compliance Corner: FSVP — The FDA Rule That Trips Up New Importers 🚨
If you're importing food to the United States — including green coffee — you need to know about FSVP.
FSVP stands for Foreign Supplier Verification Program. Under the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), every food import must have a qualified FSVP importer on file before the shipment arrives at a US port.
What does an FSVP importer need to do?
✔ Verify that your foreign supplier is producing safe food
✔ Review supplier documentation and certifications
✔ Maintain hazard analysis records
✔ Be a US-based person or entity known to FDA
Miss any of these steps, and your shipment can be held, refused, or subjected to enhanced examination — with costs that quickly compound.
InGain guides your team through the full FSVP qualification process and ensures every shipment is filed correctly with FDA. No surprises. No detentions.

Compliance Corner: What Is an Importer of Record (IOR)? 📋
This is the most important term in US coffee importing — and the one most roasters don't fully understand until something goes wrong at customs.
Here's what you need to know:
An Importer of Record (IOR) is the legal entity responsible for a shipment entering the United States. They must:

Be registered with US Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
File the entry documentation for every shipment
Ensure all FDA requirements are met (Prior Notice, FSVP)
Maintain records for a minimum of 5 years

Without a registered IOR, your green coffee doesn't clear customs. Full stop.
InGain LLC serves as your IOR — meaning your company can import green coffee with full legal compliance, without needing to register yourself or hire a dedicated import specialist.
It's one of our most valuable services, and it's included with every order.
