Import Tips
• Verify moisture content and pellet durability to meet feed safety standards; test for mycotoxins common in grain byproducts
• Provide mill certificates documenting starch residue origin to avoid reclassification as prepared animal feed
• Ensure proper labeling as 'residues' not mixed feeds to prevent duty shifts under quantitative limits in Chapter 23
