Import Tips

• Provide pasteurization process logs and lab tests for pathogens to meet FDA import standards

• Check for country-specific quotas or AD/CVD orders, especially from Asia; use bonds for suspended entries

• Avoid pitfalls by declaring exact preparation method—mislabeling as 'cooked' vs 'pasteurized' can trigger reclassification
