Import Tips
• Verify sensitivity certificate documentation proving 5 cg or better to qualify under this subheading
• Include calibration weights if shipped together; separate entries may require parts classification proof
• Avoid common pitfall of misclassifying as laboratory scales under 9016.00.20 without jewelry-specific features
