Import Tips

• Confirm dehydration level as ghee explicitly excluded from butter subheading 0405.10; apply for import license under butter oil quota (6M+ kg limit)

• Provide certificate of analysis showing >99% milkfat to avoid reclassification; watch for TRQ exhaustion leading to higher over-quota duties
