Import Tips & Compliance
• Secure import permits from APHIS for ruminant-origin products to prevent BSE or scrapie transmission risks
• Label shipments clearly as 'pharmaceutical raw material - not for human consumption' to avoid food safety mix-ups
• Conduct pre-shipment testing for contaminants like heavy metals, as pharma-grade glands require purity certification
