Import Tips
• Obtain import licenses from USDA as required for quota entries under additional U.S. note 10; Mexican products are excluded
• Provide documentation certifying compliance with general note 15 (e.g
• USMCA or other FTAs) to qualify for reduced duties
• Verify fat content and concentration levels to avoid reclassification; common pitfall is improper sugar content declaration
