Import Tips

• Document the refining process to show it is physical and does not involve chemical modification

• Provide a certificate of analysis showing the oleic acid content to confirm the high oleic variety

• Verify the oil is not merely denatured, as denatured oils fall under heading 15.18 per Chapter Note 3
