Import Tips
• Obtain Appendix II CITES permits for grenadilla wood body; delays common without pre-shipment approval
• Provide bore diameter (15.25mm standard) and key count (17-18 keys) specs to distinguish from A-clarinets
• Ensure mouthpiece is not included separately, as it could trigger parts classification under 9209
