Import Tips

Use ISPM-15 compliant wooden pallets for bulk shipments to prevent quarantine issues from wood pests

Declare varietal purity to distinguish from durum corn (1005.90.20), avoiding higher scrutiny

Budget for fumigation if shipping from high-quarantine risk areas like parts of South America
