Import Tips
• Submit Certificate of Label Approval (COLA) from TTB with import documentation to prevent FDA/TTB holds
• Verify proof using U.S. standard (50% vol at 15.56°C) for accurate duty computation on ethyl alcohol content
• Package securely to avoid breakage; declare as 'spirituous beverages' to steer clear of misclassification as wine
