Import Tips
• Verify Brix value with lab testing using refractometer at 20°C to confirm ≤20 and avoid reclassification to higher Brix subheadings
• Provide certificate of analysis showing unfermented status and no added spirit; ensure FDA prior notice for food safety compliance
• Label containers clearly with concentration ratio and reconstitution instructions to prevent customs disputes on 'concentrated' status
