Import Tips
• Verify protein content exceeds 70% by dry weight with lab analysis certificates to confirm classification as a concentrate
• Ensure labeling distinguishes it from complete foods to avoid reclassification under Chapter 21 headings like 2106.90
• Check for GMO declarations if soy-sourced, as some markets require non-GMO certification for protein powders
