Import Tips

• Submit commercial invoice specifying 'undenatured for nonbeverage industrial use' to prevent beverage misclassification

• Ensure containers are industrial-style (e.g

• drums) not consumer bottles to support nonbeverage intent

• Monitor for denaturant traces; any addition moves to 2207.10.40+ denatured categories
