Import Tips

• Verify entry falls within U.S

• Note 5 annual quota (e.g

• 80,200 MT for Brazil) with origin certification from approved countries

• Provide lab analysis confirming Burley type and refuse status (stems <20% leaf); misclassification risks higher duties

• Exclude Canada/Israel/Mexico origins or Chapter 98 samples to qualify; track aggregate entries Sept 13-Sept 12
