Import Tips
• Provide polarization certificates showing sucrose <99.5° if resembling raw sugar to avoid 1701 quotas
• Ensure packaging indicates 'ready for consumption' to stay in 1704; bulk shipments risk Chapter 19 reclassification
• Test for over 10% cane/beet sugar dry weight; may trigger additional U.S. note 3 limits if applicable
