Import Tips

• Verify sugar content does not exceed 10% by dry weight thresholds in Additional U.S

• Note 3 to avoid quota restrictions on sugar-containing articles

• Provide detailed ingredient lists and polarimeter readings if required to confirm classification as non-cocoa confectionery ready for retail consumption

• Label products clearly for retail sale to prevent reclassification as bulk goods; watch for common pitfalls like missing country-of-origin markings
