Import Tips
• Verify composition via lab analysis to confirm under 32% butterfat and 60% sugar for accurate classification
• Provide detailed ingredient certificates; avoid mislabeling as retail candy to bypass quota issues
• Watch for quantitative limits on low-butterfat chocolate from non-quota countries like those outside Ireland/UK
