Import Tips
• Provide detailed bills of lading specifying blend components and 'not for retail' to prevent misclassification as finished cigars
• Comply with FDA tobacco product import requirements, including prior notice via ACE system
• Watch for moisture content declarations, as excessive processing could classify as 'other manufactured tobacco' elsewhere
