Import Tips

Provide automotive qualification certificates (e.g

AEC-Q100) to demonstrate principal optical use and avoid parts classification

Declare exact plastic polymer type (PMMA/POF) on invoices; mismatches lead to reclassification

Ensure bundles are not over 30m if for MOST protocol, as longer lengths may trigger different specs scrutiny
