Import Tips

• Obtain a veterinary health certificate confirming the blood is from animals unfit for human consumption to comply with USDA and FDA import regulations

• Declare exact animal origin (e.g

• bovine) on entry documents; misdeclaration can lead to seizures under animal product rules

• Avoid common pitfalls like insufficient sterilization proof, as dried blood must be processed to eliminate BSE risks
