Import Tips
• Provide documentation on force-feeding methods if required by destination country ethics rules to preempt customs holds
• Verify exporter's FSIS equivalence for pathogen-free status, common pitfall in foie gras imports
• Declare as 'livers' not 'foie gras' initially to stay in 0207; preparation shifts classification
