Import Tips
• Submit fat content certificates (<0.5% for skim) to avoid misclassification as whole milk products
• Monitor aggregate quotas across 0402.91 subheadings; excess requires higher over-quota bonds
• Label clearly as 'condensed not powdered' to prevent confusion with dried milk in 0402.21
