Import Tips

• Verify country-specific quotas under Additional U.S

• Note 21 (e.g

• EU max 5,407,000 kg); apply for licenses early via USDA

• Include certificates of origin and fat content analysis; mislabeling as non-cow's milk evades quotas but risks penalties

• Check for inadvertent inclusion of 0406.90.61 mixtures; pure Provolone stays here but blended may shift
