Import Tips
• Verify the print's creation date is under 20 years with manufacturer certificates to avoid reclassification to 4911.91.41
• Ensure no advertising intent; purely decorative prints qualify here, but promotional ones go to 4901.10
• Label fiber content if mounted on fabric; common pitfall is misdeclaring as artworks under Chapter 97
