Import Tips

• Document fire-curing process with lab analysis to distinguish from burley or dark air-cured types

• Check aggregate quotas per U.S

• Note (e.g

• 9,956 MT for EU); use chapter 98 for duty-free samples

• Avoid bulk packaging that suggests retail; must be for further manufacture to prevent reclass to 2403
