Import Tips

Verify drive capacity and interface specs in documentation to confirm classification under 'other' magnetic disk drives, avoiding reclassification to larger drive subheadings

Include FCC certification and RoHS compliance declarations, as these are common pitfalls for electronics imports leading to CBP holds

Ensure invoice details exact model and 'not assembled in cabinets' status to prevent duty misapplication
