Import Tips
• Provide detailed specs including bore size and bell material to customs for accurate brass-wind verification
• Ensure commercial invoice lists retail value over $10 and excludes cases to prevent set classification
• Avoid pitfalls by not bundling with sheet music, which could trigger 9209 classification
