Import Tips
• Confirm exact quota availability (only 1 kg for New Zealand) via Customs query to prevent entry refusal
• Label clearly as 'cocoa powder with added sugar' to distinguish from unsweetened 1806.10.05.00
• Bundle with larger quota country shipments if possible to optimize logistics under strict limits
