Import Tips & Compliance

β€’ Label fiber content accurately as wafers derive from cereal flours; mislabeling leads to FDA holds

β€’ Provide commercial invoice detailing 'wafers' vs 'cookies' distinction through thinness and crisp texture specs

β€’ Watch for moisture content to ensure stability during ocean freight; use desiccants in packaging
