Import Tips & Compliance

Provide supplier affidavits and third-party test reports for IDFB compliance; pitfalls include incomplete disinfection documentation leading to quarantines

Declare exact species (e.g

white duck) and intended use as stuffing to match HTS criteria

Avoid bulk packaging over 50kg without ventilation specs, as it risks mold claims during inspection
