Import Tips
• Include technical specs confirming jewel count and timekeeping regulation to prevent misclassification as parts
• Declare exact value per unit; undervaluation risks penalties under valuation rules for assembled movements
• Check for insular possession duty exemptions if applicable, but ensure compliance with wage verification requirements
