Import Tips

• Confirm that the modem interface is designed solely for word processing machines and not for general computers, as this determines the correct classification

• If the PCA includes a complete modem, it might be classified as a modem under heading 85.17 rather than as a part

• Keep records of the word processor models this interface is compatible with to support your declaration
