Import Tips
• Declare the pencils as standard encased-lead pencils under 9609.10.00, as the short length does not affect classification
• Ensure the shipment is described accurately to avoid scrutiny about promotional items
• Verify that the pencils are not part of a promotional kit that might include other goods, which could change classification
