Import Tips
• Document cooking method (kettle vs continuous fry) as it doesn't affect classification but aids quality verification
• Test for acrylamide levels, common in fried potatoes, to meet EU-equivalent FDA import standards
• Use ISF filings early for time-sensitive snack imports to prevent delays
