Import Tips
• Differentiate from solar panels by declaring as unassembled single cells; include efficiency specs under 8541 notes
• RoHS compliance documentation required for electronics imports; test for lead-free semiconductor materials
• Avoid bulk packaging that mimics modules to prevent misclassification under 8541.40
