Import Tips

Verify the oil extraction source is from low erucic acid rapeseed (canola) to confirm classification under 2306.41/49; provide extraction process documentation

Ensure product is free of meat/soybean residues to avoid reclassification under 2304 or 2305; include lab analysis certificates

Check for pellet integrity during shipping to prevent dust loss, which could affect weight-based duties or feed quality standards
