Import Tips

• Verify butterfat content exceeds 25% with lab analysis certificates to confirm classification under this subheading

• Ensure documentation proves not put up for retail sale, such as bulk packaging over 5kg, to prevent reclassification

• Comply with FDA prior notice and dairy import licenses; common pitfall is mislabeling cocoa content if traces present
