Import Tips
• Provide laboratory certification confirming denaturation agents and alcoholic strength to avoid reclassification as undenatured ethyl alcohol
• Declare proof accurately as duties are assessed per proof liter; test at 15.56°C per US notes
• Avoid common pitfall of insufficient denaturant documentation, which can lead to seizure or higher duties
