Import Tips
• Declare exact alkyl chain distribution and glucose degree of polymerization in entry docs for proper subheading
• Microbial contamination testing required; must confirm >90% vegetable origin to avoid 3402.90
• Ship in industrial totes (not consumer bottles) to maintain 'not for retail sale' status
