Import Tips
• Declare exact polymer (PP ≥95%) via invoice and test data to comply with subheading polymer classification rules
• Avoid selling as 'set with hooks' which could reclassify under 3926.90 as household articles
• Check for chemical modification; modified polymers go to 'Other' but confirm predominance
