Import Tips
• Include FDA registration and batch testing results for oligosaccharide levels to support classification during customs review
• Avoid common pitfalls by ensuring no cocoa content exceeds limits; declare kg cmsc for milk solids accurately
• Use proper retail-ready packaging to prevent classification as bulk dairy under 0400 series
