Import Tips
• Obtain ceramic composition analysis to differentiate from plastic/polymer cases potentially under Chapter 39
• Declare as 'watch case' with movement fit specs; bulk shipments risk general plastics classification
• Comply with country-of-melt rules for ceramic binders if containing metallic elements
