Import Tips
• Confirm waterproofing does not alter pharmaceutical impregnation; test for solubility in classification rulings
• Provide documentation proving 'retail sale' packing with measured units to distinguish from bulk imports
• Avoid misdeclaration as sterile surgical items, which could lead to 3006 classification
