Import Tips
• Verify the syrup meets the 'blended syrup' definition in additional U.S. note 4 to chapter 17 to avoid reclassification to chapter 17 sugar products
• Provide detailed ingredient lists and production processes in documentation to confirm it's a food preparation rather than a simple syrup
• Be aware of potential FDA prior notice requirements for imported food flavorings and ensure proper labeling for allergens like nuts or dairy
