Import Tips
• Ensure the blades are not classified as instruments of Chapter 90; they are blades of base metal and fall under Chapter 82
• Provide documentation that the blades are for single-use and sterile, but this does not change the tariff classification
• Verify if the blades qualify for duty-free treatment under a trade agreement by submitting the required origin documentation
