Import Tips & Compliance
• Submit lab reports on sugar percentage and absence of allergens; align with USDA organic claims if applicable
• Document retail put-up (e.g
• <5kg units) to distinguish from institutional bulk under other headings
• Avoid misclassification by specifying 'young children' not 'infants' on entry docs; bulk sales risk 1901.90 treatment
