Import Tips
• Verify maximum take-off weight certification from manufacturer to confirm subheading 8806.94 compliance; include technical specs in entry docs
• Obtain FAA registration docs if for US operations; declare as unmanned aircraft to avoid misclassification as toys
• Watch for battery inclusions—separate lithium batteries may require UN38.3 certification and different HTS
