Import Tips
• Verify fat content documentation exceeds 1.5% by weight and confirm no added sugars to avoid reclassification to 0402.21.05 quota subheading
• Obtain USDA import license if applicable; note this subheading avoids primary dried milk quotas but monitor annual aggregate limits
• Ensure proper labeling of milkfat percentage and country of origin; common pitfall is misdeclaring fat content leading to penalties
