Import Tips
• Include lab analysis confirming flue-curing process and nicotine/flavor profile to distinguish from air-cured
• Track aggregate quantities per origin country to stay within U.S
• Note 5 limits; excess may face higher duties
• Label packages clearly as 'unmanufactured flue-cured leaf' to prevent misclassification as finished products
