Import Tips
• Verify milk solids content documentation using 'kg cmsc' units as per statistical notes to confirm classification
• Obtain certificates of analysis proving less than 5% cocoa and nutritional breakdown to avoid reclassification
• Ensure bulk packaging is not retail-ready to prevent shifting to infant food subheadings like 1901.10
