Import Tips
• Test ash content post-mineral deduction; barley's 3% limit is higher but often triggers CBP exams
• Document sieve analysis showing 95% through 1.25mm aperture to qualify as 'meal' under heading 1103 rules
• Avoid malted barley flour which may classify under 1107 if roasted for brewing
