Import Tips
• Include ANSI Z136.1 laser safety certifications and wavelength-specific OD ratings in documentation
• Declare exact lens tint and protection levels to prevent reclassification as non-protective tinted glasses
• For bulk imports, segregate by laser type to match precise HTS descriptions
