Import Tips

• Verify exact diagonal measurement across visible faceplate per US note to confirm ≤35.56cm; obtain manufacturer specs proving HD capability (≥16:9 aspect, >700 lines)

• Common pitfall: misclassifying as non-HD tubes in 8540.11.40; require CRT-specific documentation like phosphor imprint certification
