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
