• Verify packaging meets 'put up for retail sale' criteria (e.g
• consumer-sized bags under 50 lbs) to avoid reclassification as bulk feed under 2309.90
• Include detailed ingredient labels and AAFCO nutritional adequacy statements for FDA compliance; animal food must be registered via FDA's online system
• Check for country-of-origin labeling and avoid quantitative restrictions if containing milk derivatives (though exempt under 2309.10)
