Import Tips
• Verify gelatin content exceeds 70% by dry weight and ensure no prohibited meat/fish ingredients per Chapter 21 notes to avoid reclassification
• Provide detailed ingredient lists and production process documentation; common pitfall is mislabeling as plain gelatin (3503)
• Check for sugar content thresholds that might shift to 2106.90.44 if exceeding specified limits
