Import Tips
• Verify exact processing method and flavoring to confirm not water pipe tobacco (2403.11.00); provide lab analysis if needed
• Include country of origin documentation due to U.S. quota restrictions on certain tobacco imports
• Ensure retail packaging labeling complies with FDA tobacco product regulations to avoid reclassification
