Import Tips
• Label containers with accurate net quantity, ABV, and importer details compliant with TTB and FDA regulations
• Use refrigerated shipping to maintain quality; temperature fluctuations can affect carbonation and classification proofs
• Declare exact proof for duty calculation based on U.S. notes; discrepancies lead to audits and penalties
