Import Tips

• Label as 'ceramic hair clipper blade for model [specific]' to distinguish from shaver or generic blades

• Provide heat resistance test data if requested, as ceramic composition affects valuation and classification

• Avoid mixing with shaver parts in same shipment to prevent CBP combining into shaver assemblies
