Import Tips
• Verify exact alcohol content via lab testing; U.S
• Customs requires precise measurement for this subheading
• Include production recipes and end-use statements proving it's for beverage manufacturing, not direct retail sale
• Avoid misclassification as finished liqueurs (2208); ensure labeling shows it's a base concentrate
