Import Tips
• Confirm product is not tobacco-free or glycerol-mixed to avoid exclusion from 2403.11; test for composition if flavored
• Monitor USTR regulations for quota adjustments; use chapter 98 for duty-free samples but exclude from quota counts
• Ensure packaging is not retail-ready if claiming non-consumer prep to fit 'other' classification
