Import Tips
• Submit TTB formula approval if for reprocessing; label with exact proof for duty calculation
• Ensure containers are secure for transport; common issue is leakage claims leading to shortages
• Distinguish from potable vs denatured—undenatured status requires beverage-grade certification
