Import Tips

Label as 'unrecorded flash memory device' with exact capacity; photos of internals showing PCB/flash ICs aid Customs review

Comply with RoHS for electronics; declare metal/plastic housing materials to avoid material-based reclassification

Avoid pitfall of declaring as 'toy' if small size (9503); emphasize data storage function
