Import Tips
• Submit TTB formula approval and proof gallon declarations; duties based on proof liters adjusted for actual ABV
• Ensure container holds precisely >2 but ≤4L; pitfall is customs rejecting borderline volumes without measurement cert
• Country-of-origin labeling mandatory; test for effervescence to confirm not sparkling (>0.392g CO2/100ml)
