Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify protein content and moisture levels via lab testing to meet FDA animal feed safety standards
• Obtain Certificate of Analysis from supplier confirming it's solely from soybean oil extraction, not mixed residues
• Avoid misdeclaration as soybean meal (2304.00.00.40) which has different duty treatment
