Import Tips

• Verify origin country against U.S

• Note quotas (e.g

• Brazil 80,200 MT) to avoid over-quota duties; provide export certification

• Include lab analysis confirming <35% wrapper tobacco and flue-cured type; declare as not stemmed/stripped

• Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring as stemmed (2401.20), which shifts to different subheading
