Import Tips
• Confirm the fatty acid composition and purity via a certificate of analysis; if it contains mainly stearic acid, consider subheading 3823.11.00
• Ensure the product is not a separate chemically defined compound, which would fall under Chapter 29
• Declare the non-edible grade clearly to avoid food inspection delays
