Import Tips

• Verify protein content via certified lab analysis (e.g

• NIR testing) and include certificates in documentation to match HTS 1001.99.00.18 criteria

• Provide official grading certificates from exporting country (e.g

• Canadian Grain Commission) to avoid reclassification to lower-protein codes

• Watch for common pitfalls like moisture content exceeding 14.5%, which could trigger quality disputes or quota restrictions
