Import Tips
• Include lab certification confirming Burley varietal and manufacturing process to support quota classification
• Monitor fiscal year quotas (Sep 13-Sep 12) and use chapter 98 for duty-free samples if applicable
• Avoid bulk packaging not intended for retail to prevent reclassification as industrial tobacco
