Import Tips
• Document film compatibility certification from manufacturer specs to avoid reclassification; 110 film specs must match <35mm width
• Ensure no lens adjustability claims in invoices, as variable focus shifts to other subheadings like 9006.59.1000
• For bulk vintage imports, segregate by model to prevent averaging duties; check for asbestos in older viewfinders per EPA rules
