Import Tips

Provide processing records showing waste separation from finished goods to justify Chapter 5 classification over Chapter 96

Check for contamination; clean waste must still qualify as 'hair waste' without chemical treatment

Use bulk packaging to avoid retail set misclassification; declare as industrial raw material
