Import Tips
• Aggregate quota applies (e.g
• 80,200 MT Brazil); track via CBP for over-quota higher rates
• Provide origin certificates; post-1995 exports ineligible for legacy low-duty unless direct import documented
• Separate stems from any leaf scraps during inspection to maintain pure refuse classification
