Import Tips
• Include protein content specs (11-14%) in documentation, though classification hinges on starch/ash
• Avoid bulk packaging over 50kg if targeting retail; ensure food safety certifications like FDA prior notice
• Test for sieve passage; if under 80% through 500 micron sieve, may shift to 1102 for other cereals
