Import Tips

• Verify jewel count (over 7 but not over 17) and value exceeds $15 per unit with detailed invoices to avoid reclassification

• Ensure movement dimensions do not exceed 12mm thickness and 50mm width per Chapter 91 note for proper watch movement status

• Provide assembly certification to distinguish from unassembled Chapter 85 components; common pitfall is missing origin documentation
