Import Tips
• Document exact movement measurements and jewel count with manufacturer affidavits to support HTS 9105 classification over Chapter 85
• Ensure packaging distinguishes it as a complete clock (not parts) and include runtime test reports to confirm >47 hours operation
• Avoid misdeclaration as 'novelty' items which could trigger higher duties or anti-dumping scrutiny
