Import Tips
• Provide lab tests confirming methoxyl content and degree of esterification to prove it's unmodified pectin
• Avoid packaging in consumer-ready doses to prevent medicament classification under Chapter 30
• Watch for misdeclaration as fruit juice concentrate, which would shift to Chapter 21
