Import Tips
• Include USDA or equivalent organic certification per General Statistical Note 6; test for pesticide residues common in safflower crops
• Declare 'cold-pressed' accurately on invoices, as mechanical extraction keeps it under this code; avoid heat-refined claims
• Use food-grade containers to prevent rancidity; file FDA import alerts for potential allergen cross-contamination
