Import Tips

• Obtain import license from USDA as this falls under Additional U.S

• Note 1 quota (max 4,105,000 kg/year); provide lab analysis confirming whey protein content and natural milk constituent status; avoid misclassification as modified whey (0404.10) which requires proof of lactose/protein removal
