Import Tips
• Submit engineering drawings proving all-side rigidity to customs; pitfall is confusing with flexible toiletry bags
• Include HTS rationale in entry docs, emphasizing plastic sheeting outer surface per chapter note exclusions
• Check for precious metal fittings; if they dominate character, reclassify to Chapter 71
