Import Tips

• Document exact wheel specs and frame geometry in commercial invoices to prevent disputes over diameter measurements

• Check for country-of-origin markings on components like derailleurs, as mixed-origin bikes may require additional declarations

• Avoid common pitfalls by ensuring bikes are not presented with motors or electric assists, which would reclassify to Chapter 87 motorized vehicles
