Import Tips
• Use commercial invoices specifying 'sun-cured' and pellet size to match HTS description and prevent reclassification
• Comply with state-level feed import rules, especially in alfalfa-producing states like California, by pre-notifying authorities
• Test for mycotoxins common in field-dried forages to meet FDA safety thresholds and facilitate clearance
