Import Tips
• Provide FDA prior notice and nutritional labeling; test for milk solids to confirm Ch.4 dairy status
• Declare as 'other' non-filled to avoid 1806.32.60 filled category; watch for quota applicability
• Bulk slabs over 2kg must specify net weight; common pitfall is undeclared nut traces triggering allergen reviews
