Import Tips
• Japanese movements often qualify for lower duties; confirm origin certificates for preferential treatment
• Test movements pre-shipment to ensure functionality, avoiding returns for defective classification
• Label clearly as 'watch movement only - no case' to prevent misclassification as complete watch
