Import Tips
• Confirm remaining Brazilian quota balance via USTR portal or CBP before entry to avoid over-quota duties
• Label shipments clearly as 'Burley - Partly Stemmed - For Quota Entry 2401.20.33.20' with origin certification
• Avoid mixing with dark air-cured varieties, as blends may disqualify from light air-cured Burley classification
