Import Tips
• 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
