Import Tips
• Submit detailed ingredient breakdown showing fermented and non-alcoholic components for classification confirmation
• Use aluminum cans only; plastic or glass shifts to other subheadings with different rates
• Calculate duties on proof liter basis; common pitfall is misstating ABV temperature (must be 20°C)
