Import Tips
• Document that PFAD is a by-product of palm oil refining, not a refined oil, to support classification under 38.23
• Verify the free fatty acid content and moisture levels for CBSA and transport requirements
• Check if the PFAD is subject to Canadian food additive regulations if used in animal feed
