Import Tips
• Verify butterfat content exceeds 25% and sugar over 65% dry weight via lab analysis to confirm classification
• Provide certificates of analysis for milk solids and sugar content to avoid misclassification under lower-duty doughs
• Ensure not put up for retail sale; bulk packaging prevents reclassification to consumer HTS codes
