Import Tips
• Confirm the flour's starch content using the modified Ewers polarimetric method, as required by Chapter Note 2(A), to avoid misclassification
• Ensure the ash content is measured after deducting any added minerals, keeping it under 2.5%
• Retain milling records and sieve analysis documentation (80% through 315 µm) for CBSA inspection
