Import Tips
• Document flavorings like cinnamon as minor additives; excessive non-sugar solids could trigger reclassification
• Monitor annual quotas for articles over 10% sugar under Additional U.S
• Note 3 to prevent high over-quota tariffs
• Use FDA prior notice for food imports; pitfall is failing to declare full sugar composition accurately
