Import Tips
• Batch import declarations should specify consumer vs commercial use to determine correct statistical suffix
• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'thermometer' which shifts classification to different subheading
• Include user manuals showing non-recording function to prevent erroneous recording instrument classification
