Import Tips

• Verify origin country quotas under U.S

• Note 5 to avoid over-quota duties; flue-cured stems from Brazil or Argentina have specific limits

• Provide documentation proving intended use in non-cigarette products (e.g

• end-user affidavits) to qualify for this subheading

• Ensure stems are inspected and certified as not cut/ground/pulverized to prevent reclassification as processed refuse
