Import Tips
• Ensure the blocks are of irregular shape and not cut to regular geometric shapes, as that would move them to heading 4008
• Declare the product as raw chicle under 4001.30.00 and provide extraction documentation
• If the gum base is blended with other ingredients for chewing gum, it may fall under a different heading
