Import Tips
• Provide evidence of household end-use (e.g
• retail packaging, wattage under 100W) to prevent misclassification as industrial
• Ensure voltage compatibility documentation (110-120V for US) and FCC compliance for electronic components
• Watch for auto-classification errors if packed with needles; needles alone go to 8448.51
