Import Tips

Verify alcoholic strength at 20°C and calculate proof liters accurately using U.S. standards (50% ethyl alcohol at 15.56°C) for duty assessment

Provide certificate of origin and lab analysis for ABV, value per liter, and CO2 content to confirm it's not sparkling (>3 bars pressure)

Ensure container size is precisely 2-4L; mismeasurement can shift to adjacent subheadings like 2204.22.20.25 for 4-10L
