Import Tips

Verify the product meets the definition of 'prepared mustard' with no more than minor additives exceeding condiment thresholds to avoid reclassification under 2103.90

Provide detailed ingredient lists and production process documentation to confirm it's not mustard flour (2103.30.20) or a mixed condiment

Label containers clearly with mustard seed content and ensure compliance with FDA food safety standards for condiments
