Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If imported as complete pickup assemblies
Assembled guitar pickups with wiring classify as musical instrument parts, not separate magnets.
If including mounting hardware or brackets
Magnets sold with substantial non-magnet components become 'parts thereof' under 8505.90.
If for electrical assemblies in audio equipment
If considered electrical apparatus parts rather than standalone magnets.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide end-use statements specifying musical instrument application to distinguish from industrial magnets
• Ensure magnets are shipped demagnetized or properly packaged to prevent accidental activation during transit
• Label with residual magnetism values (typically 1.1-1.25 MGOe for Alnico II/IV) for customs verification
