Can MyUS export food?
MyUS cannot export any food items that are perishable (require refrigeration), labeled in a foreign language, or restricted for export by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). We also suggest that you contact your local customs office to inquire if food can be imported to your country, as it is often restricted.
Food must meet all US FDA export regulations: http://www.fda.gov/Food/GuidanceRegulation/ImportsExports/Exporting/default.htm
All food packaging must include the following:
- Name of the product
- Ingredient list in English
- Nutrition facts in English
If the food product arrives with a merchant invoice, we will attempt to locate the required information to meet US FDA regulations for export. If the required information is not available, MyUS will not be able to export it, and in some cases, we may not be able to ship it domestically.
