Import Tips
• Verify the value per gross does not exceed $1.35 with detailed invoices and packing lists to avoid reclassification to higher-value subheadings
• Ensure plastic composition meets Chapter 39 notes by providing material test reports confirming predominant polymer content
• Label packages clearly as 'spring-type plastic clothespins' and include country-of-origin markings to prevent inspection delays
