Import Tips & Compliance

Verify movement dimensions do not exceed 50 mm and test power reserve to confirm under 47 hours without rewinding for proper classification

Include detailed movement specifications and assembly diagrams in documentation to avoid misclassification as battery-operated clocks

Ensure clocks are not assembled with electronic components from Chapter 85 to prevent reclassification
