Import Tips
• Verify the lens is marked as 'for CCTV use only' to avoid reclassification as general optical equipment
• Include technical specs confirming CS/C-mount compatibility and CCTV-specific design in import documentation
• Ensure separate entry from camera; bundled imports may shift to camera heading 8525.89
