Import Tips

Label shipments clearly as 'industrial baking chips, not for retail sale' to prevent reclassification as candy

Conduct fat content testing; butterfat over 5.5% but milk solids <21% is critical for this subheading

Check for tariff-rate quotas if product resembles low-fat chocolate crumb subject to annual limits
