Import Tips
• Calculate and declare raw value using Treasury regulations (1.07 factor for total sugars) to meet quota charging requirements
• Include supplier certifications on fructose percentage and blend components to support tariff classification at entry
• Monitor fiscal year quotas via Federal Register notices; time imports to avoid over-quota surcharges
