Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify oil meets low erucic acid standards (<2%) via lab analysis certificates to confirm classification under 1514.11
• Provide extraction method documentation and FFA content reports to customs to avoid misclassification as refined
• Ensure bulk tankers are certified for edible oils to prevent contamination issues during import clearance
