Import Tips
• Declare intended end-use as 'for hand-rolled cigars' in entry docs to avoid misclassification into cigarette tobacco subheadings
• Check U.S
• Note 5 aggregate quotas (e.g
• 80,200 MT for Brazil) before shipping large volumes
• Ensure no cigarette-making papers or filters are included to prevent set classification issues
