Import Tips

Confirm 95% passage through 1.25mm sieve per groats/meal definition and rice-specific ash limit of 1.6%

Include polarimetric starch analysis reports; rice flour often scrutinized for potential 1108 starch classification

Ensure no roasting or flavoring that could shift to 2101 coffee substitutes or prepared products
