Import Tips

• Verify sucrose inversion via polarimeter testing to confirm fructose content over 50% by dry weight for proper classification

• Obtain certificates confirming derivation from sugar cane or beets and ensure no added flavoring or coloring to avoid reclassification

• Monitor USDA quota limits under Additional U.S

• Note 3; provide raw value calculations per Treasury regulations to prevent over-quota penalties
