Import Tips & Compliance
• Obtain a phytosanitary certificate from the exporting country confirming freedom from pests like wheat stem sawfly and compliance with USDA grade standards
• Verify protein content via official lab testing (e.g
• NIR analysis) as discrepancies can lead to reclassification or penalties
• Declare exact moisture content (typically ≤14.5% for Grade 2) to avoid quarantine holds; use ventilated containers for bulk shipments
