Import Tips

Verify alcoholic strength by volume at 20°C does not exceed 14% and value is under $1.05/liter with lab certification to avoid reclassification

Provide detailed container specs (e.g

bag-in-box volume exactly 3L) and grape origin documentation; common pitfall is inaccurate volume measurement

Label as 'wine of fresh grapes' per TTB rules; use subheading 9811.00.20 for duty-free samples under 5L
