Import Tips
• Verify yogurt meets fermentation standards and is truly dehydrated to avoid reclassification as liquid yogurt under 0403.10
• Obtain USDA import permits if subject to dairy quotas; check Additional U.S
• Note 10 for quantitative restrictions
• Label accurately with protein/fat content to prevent customs disputes over 'yogurt' definition
