Import Tips

Verify the device is handheld and not mounted for machine use to avoid reclassification under excluded technical apparatus in chapter note 1(a)

Include detailed specifications on magnification power and lens material in commercial invoices to support classification as a simple optical magnifier

Avoid bundling with lighting attachments that could shift classification to illuminated magnifiers in 9013.80.5000
