Import Tips
• Verify Cheddar cheese meets U.S. definition and obtain import license from USDA as it falls outside TRQ subheadings but subject to general dairy oversight
• Provide lab analysis confirming milkfat content and aging process to avoid reclassification as quota cheese
• Check country-specific quotas in Additional U.S
• Notes 19; non-quota countries may face higher duties
