Import Tips
• Obtain phytosanitary certificates proving no pests or diseases, as agricultural tobacco imports face strict inspections
• Track aggregate quota usage for origin countries (e.g
• 80,200 MT for Brazil) via USTR reports before shipping
• Avoid common pitfall of incomplete stemming documentation, which can lead to reclassification and higher duties
