Import Tips

Verify maximum weighing capacity ≤30kg and digital electronic type via manufacturer specs to confirm HTS 8423.81.0040; capacities over 30kg shift to 8423.81.0045

Include calibration certificates and accuracy class documentation (e.g

OIML Class II/III) for customs validation

Label as 'weighing machinery' not 'balance' to avoid Chapter 90; common pitfall is classifying lab scales as instruments
