Import Tips
• Submit FDA Drug Master File (DMF) reference if available; required for bulk APIs entering US commerce
• Test for microbial limits pre-shipment; contamination is a top reason for FDA import alerts on iron salts
• Label clearly as 'Not for direct human consumption' to prevent retail misclassification issues
