Import Tips
• Include polarimetric starch analysis reports; hard spring wheat must exceed 80% starch on dry basis to avoid 2302 reclassification
• Label with specific variety (e.g
• Norstar) and origin; CBP may require proof distinguishing from hard red winter wheat
• Watch for moisture content inflation—report on dry product weight as per chapter notes to prevent undervaluation disputes
