Import Tips

• Ensure the shell is made from an ear impression and is specifically designed for a hearing aid to qualify under 9021.90.00

• Keep records of the ear impression and customization process to demonstrate the product's specific use

• Verify if the shell is eligible for duty-free treatment under a free trade agreement, as medical devices often qualify
