Import Tips
• Be prepared to specify the type of sugar used (beet vs. cane) in your import documentation, as it may be relevant for tariff classification
• Ensure the product is not considered a sugar confectionery under heading 17.04, which would exclude it from Chapter 20
• Keep records of the heat treatment process to confirm it is 'otherwise prepared or preserved'
