Import Tips

Verify the set contains at least two different colors to qualify as 'colors in sets'; single-color packs may shift to 3213.90

Include detailed packing lists specifying color count and form (e.g

pencils, tablets) to avoid reclassification during customs exam

Label products clearly as 'artists' colors' and provide certificates of origin to claim preferential duty rates if applicable
