Import Tips
• Ensure the carbon arc lamp is not for use in measuring, checking, or testing instruments of Chapter 90, which would fall under a different tariff item
• Verify the product is not a xenon arc-lamp or hollow-cathode lamp, as those are classified elsewhere
• Keep documentation showing the lamp's intended use to support classification
