Import Tips
• Ensure the molasses is not mixed with colouring or anti-caking agents, as that would shift classification to 1703.90.10
• Provide a certificate of analysis showing sucrose content and purity to support the tariff classification
• Verify if the product qualifies for duty relief under a drawback or remission program for industrial inputs
