Import Tips
• Verify fat content exceeds 80% and it's not liquid to confirm classification under 1517.10; provide lab analysis if challenged
• Include detailed ingredient lists and nutritional labeling compliant with FDA standards to avoid detention
• Watch for misclassification as butter if any dairy fat exceeds limits; declare vegetable origin clearly
