Import Tips
• Declare the SMAJ5.6CA as a Zener diode under 8541.10.00, not as a 'protector' which might be misclassified under heading 8536
• Verify the bidirectional breakdown voltage specification in your documentation to support the classification
• Consider consolidating shipments with other semiconductor devices to streamline customs clearance
