Import Tips
• Verify the appraised value per unit exceeds $5 with invoices to justify 7013.37.60 classification; undervaluation risks reclassification
• Provide lab certification confirming not glass-ceramics or lead crystal (under 24% PbO) to avoid higher-duty subheadings
• Ensure packaging prevents breakage, as damage claims can lead to disputes over declared value during customs inspection
