Import Tips

• Verify FCC certification and carrier compatibility documentation to ensure compliance with U.S. wireless standards

• Include detailed bills of lading specifying 'cellular smartphones for voice/data transmission' to prevent reclassification as general telecom apparatus

• Avoid common pitfalls like declaring as 'accessories' which shifts to 8517.70; provide technical specs confirming cellular network capability
