Import Tips
• Verify protein content via lab analysis to confirm classification as MPC under 3501.10.10.00; mislabeling as whey may shift to 3502
• Provide certificate of analysis showing milk origin and concentration process to avoid reclassification as fresh milk products
• Ensure FDA prior notice filing for dairy ingredients to prevent holds at customs
