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
