Import Tips & Compliance
• Conduct moisture and purity testing; levels above 12% may trigger reclassification or rejection for mold risks
• Declare exact grind size (fine/medium) in entry docs, as excessive coarseness could be deemed 'crushed' vs 'ground'
• Check for preferential treatment if originating from Chile or Mexico under USMCA provisions
