Import Tips
• Ensure declaration specifies 'dried vital wheat gluten' with organic cert to match exact subheading
• Test for moisture content <10% as wet gluten would require different handling and potential reclass
• Watch for misdeclaration as 1101 wheat flour, which has different duties and entry requirements
