Import Tips & Compliance

Verify CRT phosphor type and video recording mechanism meet exact subheading criteria; obtain technical specs from manufacturer

Include FCC certification and EMI test reports as U.S. imports require compliance with radiation and interference standards

Label as 'incorporating video recording apparatus' to avoid reclassification; watch for high definition mislabeling pitfalls
