Import Tips
• Provide sensor type (K-type thermocouple, PT100) and accuracy specs in commercial invoice for proper valuation
• Ensure RoHS compliance certification if destined for electronics manufacturing
• Avoid classifying with base unit; separate probes risk reclassification as parts under 9033
