Import Tips
• Verify origin country quotas under U.S
• Note 5(a) as exceeding limits triggers higher duties for HTS 2403.19.30
• Provide documentation proving end-use in pipes or non-cigarette products to avoid reclassification to cigarette subheadings
• Label packages clearly as 'for pipe use only' to comply with 'to be used in products other than cigarettes' requirement
