Import Tips
• Ensure the plastic core is not coated or impregnated in a way that could shift classification to Chapter 39
• If the emery boards are packaged for retail, confirm the packaging does not include other items that could trigger set classification
• Verify the abrasive grain type (natural or artificial) for accurate declaration
