Import Tips
• Request residue analysis for EU-origin rice due to strict US tolerances on chlorpyrifos and other pesticides
• Declare moisture content (max 14.5% for brown rice) on commercial invoice to prevent mold claims
• For organic claims, provide USDA NOP or EU equivalent certification per General Note 6
