Import Tips

• Provide veterinary certificates confirming disease-free status; kidneys are high-risk for contaminants like trichinella

• Use insulated containers to maintain frozen state during transit, as thawing could reclassify as chilled

• Label accurately as 'edible offal' to distinguish from inedible products excluded by chapter notes
