Import Tips
• Obtain USDA APHIS veterinary health certificates confirming flock disease-free status and proper grading per consumer standards
• Ensure eggs are refrigerated below 45°F during transport to maintain freshness; declare exact grade and pack size on entry documents
• Avoid misclassification as hatching eggs; consumer packs cannot exceed 36 eggs per carton to prevent reclassification
