Import Tips

Obtain ETA certification of authenticity and jewel count to support HTS 9108 classification over general parts

Avoid bulk packaging that suggests sets; declare as individual complete movements to prevent set classification

Monitor MFN vs preferential duty rates based on country of origin, especially for Swiss exports
