Import Tips

• Verify origin country against US Note quotas (e.g

• 80,200 MT for Brazil); exceeding limits triggers higher duties

• Provide documentation proving end-use for non-cigarette products like pipe tobacco to avoid reclassification

• Label as 'Virginia fire-cured refuse' and include lab analysis confirming fire-curing method and non-cigarette intent
