Import Tips
• Verify packaging meets 'prepared for marketing to ultimate consumer' criteria with retail labeling to avoid reclassification under bulk subheadings
• Include certificates of origin and quantity documentation, noting quota limits for certain countries under US Note 5
• Ensure no glycerol predominance to prevent misclassification as water pipe tobacco under 2403.11.00
