Import Tips
• Document threshing process to distinguish from manufactured products; avoid 2404 catch-all for any further treatment
• Confirm country-specific quotas (e.g
• 12,000 MT Malawi); common error is aggregate miscalculation across EU origins
• Prepared for hand-rolled cigarettes? Still classifiable here unless marketed as final consumer product
