Import Tips

• Include photos or specs confirming it's a functional musical instrument, not a toy, to distinguish from Chapter 95 classifications

• Document electronics value separately if applicable, but exclude case value from total for subheading qualification

• Comply with FCC regulations for electric guitars if containing active electronics to avoid import delays
