Import Tips
• Confirm EN 14214 or ASTM D6751 standards with third-party lab certification for oxidation stability and cold filter plugging point
• Document feedstock origin (e.g
• canola crops) for USDA biofuel programs and avoid tariff pitfalls from unverified blends
• Label containers clearly as 'biodiesel fuel' to prevent reclassification as inedible oils during customs exam
