Import Tips
• Submit lab reports proving effervescent CO2 levels; distillation proof method allowed if direct measure impracticable
• Ensure TTB COLA approval for labels before import; track proof for accurate duty on non-100 proof imports
• Avoid misdeclaring as sparkling to prevent penalties; common issue is container size mismeasurement
