Import Tips
• Provide USDA or equivalent organic certification referencing General Statistical Note 6 to qualify for any preferential treatment
• Label with accurate milk solids content if blended (none here), using 'kg cmsc' units if applicable
• Ensure cold chain logistics to maintain quality, as improper storage can lead to reclassification or spoilage claims
