Import Tips
• Verify milk solids content meets additional U.S. note 1 to Ch.4 (cows' milk solids) via lab analysis to avoid misclassification
• Include commercial invoice detailing cocoa %, milk fat, and dairy origin; subject to TRQ if butterfat ≤5.5% under related subheadings
• Avoid retail candy packaging over 453g to prevent reclassification; declare exact bar weight and inclusions
