Import Tips

• Provide magnification range and optical path documentation proving stereoscopic compound nature, distinguishing from simple magnifiers

• Label as 'laboratory optical instrument' to prevent reclassification as educational toy under Chapter 95

• Include user manual showing non-technical, general microscopy applications to stay in 9011 rather than measuring instruments
