Import Tips
• Verify appraised value per unit does not exceed $5 with detailed invoices to qualify for this low-duty subheading
• Ensure clocks operate without escapement if electric to avoid reclassification under heading 8412 per chapter notes
• Provide battery safety certifications (e.g
• RoHS) as common CBP scrutiny point for low-cost electronics
