Import Tips & Compliance
• Obtain veterinary health certificates confirming disease-free status and proper slaughterhouse sourcing to comply with USDA and FDA import requirements
• Maintain cold chain documentation throughout transit to ensure freshness, as improper preservation can lead to rejection at customs
• Verify supplier compliance with CITES if sourcing from regions with endangered species risks, though bovine glands are generally exempt
