Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify Brix value using a refractometer at 20°C to confirm it doesn't qualify for lower Brix subheadings like 2009.71
• Provide lab analysis certificates proving no fermentation or added spirit (alcohol <0.5% vol)
• Label containers with exact sugar content and net weight to avoid misclassification as mixtures
