Import Tips

Verify the instrument is classified as a mouth organ (harmonica) and not an accordion; provide manufacturer specs confirming reed construction and free-blowing design

Include detailed invoices specifying key, number of reeds/holes, and materials to avoid misclassification as toy instruments under Chapter 95

Ensure compliance with CPSC standards if marketed for children under 12, as small parts in harmonicas can pose choking hazards
