Import Tips & Compliance

• Retain original factory measurement certification; Steinway provides dimension specs critical for this narrow size subheading

• Separate valuation for ebony sharps and ivory substitutes if applicable, as keyboard materials affect declared value

• Coordinate specialized crating for ocean freight; improper humidity control during transit risks soundboard warping claims
