Import Tips

• Label shipments clearly as 'feather meal for animal feed use only' to prevent confusion with human food imports, which are excluded under Chapter 5 note (a)

• Conduct microbial testing pre-shipment; U.S

• Customs may require proof of pathogen-free status to comply with APHIS import regulations

• Avoid bulk packaging without inner liners, as dust contamination can trigger FDA holds; use sealed, food-grade bags for compliance
