Import Tips

Verify ABV exceeds 0.5% vol per Chapter notes to confirm classification in 2203, not 2202 non-alcoholic beverages

Calculate duties on proof liter basis if applicable; provide lab analysis for alcohol strength at 20°C

Ensure TTB labeling compliance for imported beer; common pitfall is mismatched container declarations over 4L
