Import Tips
• Verify butterfat content via lab analysis to confirm >5.5% threshold; provide certificates of analysis
• Declare exact dairy components from headings 0401-0404; non-retail bulk packaging must be clearly documented
• Avoid retail-style labeling to prevent misclassification; common pitfall is insufficient milk solids content proof
