Import Tips
• Provide particle size analysis confirming 'grated/powdered' status to distinguish from fresh cheese
• Ensure compliance with US dairy import pasteurization rules; include health certificates from UK authorities
• Beware over-declaring as 'powder' if moisture exceeds fresh cheese limits, risking reclassification
