Import Tips
• Verify oil content to confirm defatted status; documentation like processing certificates prevents misclassification as crude soy under 1201
• Ensure labeling complies with FDA protein and allergen declarations for food-grade imports
• Avoid pitfalls by checking for GMO content declarations if targeting EU markets
