Import Tips
• Verify the PCA is explicitly marked for television camera use to avoid reclassification under general 8529.90 parts
• Include technical specs confirming compatibility with 8525 apparatus; provide OEM part diagrams in entry docs
• Watch for undervaluation pitfalls—document full R&D costs as these are high-tech assemblies
