Import Tips
• Obtain food contact material certifications (e.g
• FDA 21 CFR compliant) for spice industry clearance
• Document interchangeable mesh sizes for different spice grades to prove bolting functionality
• Avoid 'screen' terminology; use 'bolting cloth' consistently in all shipping documents
