Import Tips
• Include FDA registration if for medical use; precious metals in dental applications need health compliance docs
• Test for powder form compliance; dental powders often near sieve limit—document meticulously
• Avoid declaring as 'parts' to prevent shift to heading 7117 or medical goods headings
