Import Tips
• Verify entry eligibility under additional U.S. note 5 to chapter 17 by obtaining prior approval from U.S
• Customs for the quantitative limit allocation
• Provide laboratory analysis confirming no added flavoring matter and sugar origin from cane or beet, with added coloring only
• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as flavored syrup, which shifts to other 2106 subheadings; ensure precise sugar content documentation
