Import Tips
• Document digital format specs but emphasize magnetic tape construction to prevent reclassification as optical media
• Test tape width compliance; even slight variations can shift to adjacent width subheadings
• For bulk imports, provide reel-to-cassette assembly details to confirm 'other' status vs. raw tape
