Import Tips

• Submit certificate of origin proving Armagnac status but note it remains 'other brandy' due to bulk form

• Calculate duties precisely using Treasury proof methods; discrepancies lead to penalties

• Declare exact container capacities; over 4L triggers this subheading even for premium origins
