Import Tips
• > If the motor is imported as part of a complete window blind, the entire article may be classified under Chapter 39 (plastics) or Chapter 44 (wood) depending on the material, rather than as a motor
• Ensure the motor is described as a separate component if imported alone
• Provide a technical description of the spring mechanism to the CBSA to support classification
