Import Tips

• Verify origin certificate from Argentina to qualify under the 10,750 MT annual quota in Additional U.S

• Note 5; exceedance triggers higher rates

• Provide documentation proving flue-curing method and stemming status; not threshed or over 35% wrapper to avoid reclassification

• Avoid warehouse withdrawal timing issues—entries must align with September 13 to September 12 quota period
