Import Tips

• Verify the yeast is crude and unprocessed with lab analysis certificates to avoid misclassification as refined nutritional yeast under 2102.20.20

• Include brewing origin documentation and moisture content tests (typically under 8%) to meet FDA import standards for inactive yeasts

• Avoid common pitfalls like contamination claims by ensuring proper bulk packaging and phytosanitary certificates for animal feed use
