Import Tips

• Include harvest location documentation, as Canadian imports from Manitoba require specific CFIA export certifications

• Label accurately as 'wild rice' without varietal confusion to avoid reclassification during CBP examination

• Monitor for foreign matter limits (e.g

• weed seeds <1%) per Federal Grain Inspection Service standards
