Import Tips & Compliance

• Shelf life claims need substantiation; provide accelerated aging test data for customs validation

• Watch batteries often bulk imported - segregate from assembled watches to prevent 9101/9102 classification

• RoHS compliance docs essential; alkaline cells must show <0.1% mercury
