Import Tips
• Provide lamp compatibility charts in import docs; ballasts for non-discharge lamps risk reclassification to 8504.40 static converters
• Ensure labeling indicates 'for discharge lamps only' to prevent misclassification during customs inspection
• Test for energy efficiency compliance under DOE standards, as inefficient ballasts may incur additional regulatory fees
