Import Tips
• Provide technical datasheets showing magnetic layer specs and recording capacity for CBP verification
• Ensure packaging indicates 'recording media' to prevent misclassification as instrumentation parts
• Check for radiation-hardened variants which may require separate hazardous material declarations
