Import Tips
• Confirm milk source documentation as goat milk to differentiate from cow's milk quota restrictions
• Test for milkfat percentage to ensure it doesn't qualify as dairy spread under 0405 heading
• Include heat-treatment records showing concentration process to prevent misclassification as prepared spreads
