Import Tips

Verify video display diagonal measurement across the visible faceplate per US note to ensure it falls between 88-113 cm to avoid reclassification

Include FCC certification and energy efficiency labels in documentation, as TVs require compliance with US standards

Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as computer monitors; confirm TV tuner presence for correct 8528 classification
