Import Tips

• Verify milk solids content via lab analysis to confirm <21% threshold; provide certificates to Customs for classification

• Ensure bulk packaging exceeds 2 kg and label as non-retail to avoid quota restrictions under US Note for chocolate crumb

• Include origin documentation, as Mexican products are excluded from quantitative limits but must not mimic retail confections
