Import Tips
• Micron test reports are essential; 23-25 microns typically equates to finer than 44s for classification
• Calculate duties precisely using clean kg basis, subtracting allowances for vegetable matter per US note (b)
• Label bales clearly with processing history to prevent disputes over 'beyond degreased' status
