Import Tips & Compliance

Document dairy solids content (kg cmsc if applicable) and ensure under 5% cocoa equivalence for Chapter 19 eligibility

Use FDA prior notice and facility registration; watch for misclassification as infant formula (HTS 1901.10)

Test for over 40% cocoa risk if any traces present, which would shift to other subheadings
