Import Tips
• Provide coconut shell source traceability and activation method (steam vs chemical) in commercial invoice
• Ensure low ash and moisture content specs (<5% moisture) with COA to prevent moisture-related duty disputes
• Label bulk bags properly for food-grade if applicable, avoiding mix-up with industrial grades
