Hello and Welcome to the Forum!  :welcome:

 

I think we would need to know a bit more about your beverage. Is it dairy, fruit, seafood? Beverage is a very big topic.

Hi, santichai;

 

In addition to Setanta's advice, I would ask if you have a U.S. customs broker for the sale? A broker can help immensely with legal navigation!

Labeling requirements and FDA registration are the most stringent aspects to consider. Others would be ingredients and GRAS, allergens, kosher/halal, etc.

Here are some links you may find helpful:
