Import Tips

• Verify exact dimensions do not exceed 170mm x 100mm x 45mm and confirm no built-in loudspeaker to qualify under 8527.12

• Include battery operation test documentation and technical specs confirming built-in amplifier without external power needs

• Avoid misclassification as larger portable stereos; measure housing precisely to prevent customs reclassification
