Import Tips

• Confirm it's not prepared for cigarette production to avoid misclassification; provide end-use declarations if for hand-rolled consumer use

• Check aggregate quantity limits per U.S

• Note 5 for origin countries; exceedances trigger higher duties

• Label packages clearly as 'RYO tobacco' with Maryland type specs to comply with FDA tobacco regulations and HTS verification
