Import Tips
• Verify milk solids content if blended with dairy; ensure under 40% cocoa if any present per chapter notes
• Provide certificate of analysis confirming fluid state and malt extract composition to avoid misclassification
• Label accurately for food safety; common pitfall is incorrect declaration as dry extract leading to wrong subheading
