Import Tips

Obtain official grade certificates from USDA-accredited inspectors to verify Grade 2 compliance, including test weight, damage, and moisture levels under 14.5%

Ensure phytosanitary certificates confirm freedom from pests like wheat scab or khapra beetle to avoid quarantine holds at U.S. ports

Declare exact protein content (typically 12-14%) on entry documents, as discrepancies can lead to reclassification or penalties
