Import Tips
• Verify compliance with additional U.S. note 7 to chapter 17 via entry documentation; non-compliance leads to reclassification
• Provide lab analysis certifying sugar content over 65% by dry weight and absence of cocoa to avoid duties under quota limits
• Label as 'described in add
• U.S. note 7' on commercial invoice to facilitate CBP processing
