Import Tips
• Conduct value audits pre-shipment to ensure compliance with $0.30 limit; related-party transactions need arm's-length proof
• Declare as 'drinking glasses' explicitly to distinguish from decorative items
• Watch for misclassification in sets; individual glasses stay in 7013.37 if not presented as ensembles
