Import Tips
• Maintain supplier affidavits confirming modifications occurred post-manufacture for oven-specific use
• Use HTS-specific invoice declarations to differentiate from generic magnetrons during entry summary filing
• Test for FCC electromagnetic compliance, as oven parts must meet household emission standards
