Import Tips
• Verify refinement level with lab certificates confirming washing, bleaching, and deodorization to avoid misclassification as crude oil
• Include peroxide value and free fatty acid test results in documentation for customs compliance
• Ensure packaging labels specify 'fully refined' to prevent reclassification under less refined subheadings
