Import Tips
• Submit proof gallon declarations accurately, as duties scale with proof strength relative to 100 proof for sakè typically 14-16% ABV
• Use refrigerated shipping to maintain quality, and include temperature logs for customs to prevent spoilage claims
• Check for state alcohol import permits, as sakè distribution varies by U.S. state ABC regulations
