Import Tips
• Document as 'household postal scale' with photos showing non-commercial design to avoid 8423.82 scrutiny
• Check for country-of-origin marking on dial face as required for small scales
• Avoid importing with postage stamps or envelopes to prevent classification as a complete mailing set
