Import Tips

• Verify origin country quotas under U.S

• Note 5 to avoid over-quota duties; Maryland tobacco from non-quota countries like Canada is exempt

• Include detailed tobacco type certification and fiber content labeling to confirm 'Maryland' classification and prevent reclassification

• Ensure packaging is suitable for retail sale to qualify under prepared-for-consumer provisions; bulk shipments may face different scrutiny
