Import Tips
• Provide evidence of prior wine aging (e.g
• winery certificates) to support used classification and prevent new barrel duties
• Ensure complete draining and cleaning; residual wine may trigger alcohol import regulations
• Check ISPM-15 compliance for wooden packaging elements during shipping to avoid quarantine
