Import Tips
• Australian grain exports require AQIS certification; ensure Grade 1 matches U.S. standards to avoid downgrading at port
• Test for ergot and Fusarium prior to shipment; U.S. tolerances are strict for mycotoxins in wheat imports
• Use ISPM 15 compliant pallets for bulk shipments to prevent wooden packaging rejections
