Import Tips
• Provide processing records showing dehydration without binders to confirm flour/meal status per chapter notes
• Label clearly as 'squid flour for human consumption' to prevent misclassification as pet food
• Watch for allergen declarations; pitfalls include missing country-of-origin for molluscs in blended products
