Import Tips

Include processing records proving partial defatting/refatting to distinguish from feed residues in 2304

Check for mycotoxin contamination certificates, common pitfall in soy imports leading to quarantines

Ensure commercial invoice specifies 'of soybeans' and grind size to match subheading description
