Import Tips

• Ensure grinding does not constitute 'processing' that shifts to Chapter 20; keep as minimally processed

• Provide supplier affidavits confirming non-GMO status if targeting organic markets

• Monitor EU export bans on high-erucic products, though not directly applicable, for supply chain risks
