Import Tips
• Provide exploded diagrams showing tape mechanism lacks recording heads to substantiate non-recording claim during CBP review
• Ensure packaging specifies 'playback only' for tape deck to avoid reclassification; include user manual excerpts
• Test battery life claims pre-shipment as CBP may inspect for true 'no external power' capability
