Import Tips
• Verify alcoholic strength ≤0.5% vol at 20°C via lab testing; exceedance shifts to heading 2203
• Include Certificate of Analysis for ABV and CO2 content; aluminum containers must be clearly specified in entry docs
• Avoid misclassification as 'near beer' without proof; common pitfall is failing to declare container material
