Import Tips
• Obtain U.S
• Tobacco Quota Certificate if exceeding de minimis for quota subheadings; pre-1995 exports may qualify specially
• Document sun-curing process photos/certificates to distinguish from flue- or air-cured alternatives
• Store in climate-controlled conditions post-import to prevent mold, a common CBP inspection issue
