Import Tips

• Obtain USDA import license as this falls under dried dairy quotas (max 3,321,300 kg/year under US note 2); Mexican origin prohibited

• Provide lab certification confirming 6-35% butterfat content and fermented sour cream composition to avoid reclassification

• Declare exact moisture content; over-drying may shift to whey protein products under 0404, triggering different quotas
