Import Tips

Provide manufacturer's specs confirming iodine value below 5 for full hydrogenation to match HTS criteria

Ensure packaging prevents moisture absorption, as flakes are hygroscopic, to avoid quality issues at entry

Declare as food-grade with COA; watch for trans fat content limits under FDA rules despite zero trans from full hydrogenation
