Import Tips

• Document intended end-use for hand-rolled cigarettes to qualify under US note (e); avoid cigarette manufacturing declarations

• Verify stems meet 'not cut, not ground, not pulverized' criteria through lab analysis if challenged by Customs

• Enter before September 13 quota reset; pre-1995 export documentation may allow special treatment per AN5(d)
