Import Tips & Compliance

β€’ Provide material composition certificates proving InGaAs construction for proper photosensitive diode classification

β€’ Ensure TO-can packaging doesn't trigger parts classification under 8541.90

β€’ Avoid describing as 'solar cell' to prevent reclassification to photovoltaic subheadings
