Import Tips
• Verify battery chemistry certification showing manganese dioxide cathode to confirm HTS 8506.10.00.10 classification
• Include Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and UN38.3 transport certifications for lithium content compliance
• Avoid misclassification as rechargeable; primary cells cannot be recharged per HTS definitions
