Import Tips & Compliance

β€’ Verify starch content exceeds Chapter 11 minimum via Ewers method and ash under limits to avoid reclassification to 2302

β€’ Provide mill certificates showing sieve passage for powder fineness; common pitfall is contamination with non-potato starches

β€’ Label clearly as 'potato flour' not 'starch' to prevent confusion with Chapter 35 products
