Import Tips

Provide polarimetric test reports confirming starch >80% to distinguish from 1101 wheat flour

Ensure packaging specifies 'food-grade wheat starch' and no gluten claims without testing to prevent FDA holds

For bulk imports, declare sieve aperture results (500μm for wheat) to affirm not meal under 1103
