Import Tips & Compliance

• Use US HTS statistical suffixes for flavored vs unflavored to track quota applicability if any

• Test for contaminants like diacetyl; non-compliant batches lead to FDA import alerts

• Label as 'not for sale to minors' and include warnings to meet consumer product safety standards
