Import Tips

• Verify the part is specifically dimensioned for watch movements (under 12mm thick, 50mm wide) to avoid reclassification

• Include technical drawings and movement compatibility certificates in documentation to prove watch-specific use

• Avoid common pitfall of importing with assembled components, which may shift to complete movement classification under 9108
