Import Tips
• Maintain records of the reducing sugar content to prove classification as a dextrin
• Ensure the product is not a gelatin product of the printing industry, which would fall under Chapter 49
• Verify the dextrin is not used in enzymatic preparations for pre-tanning, which would shift to heading 32.02
