Import Tips
• Obtain CITES certification if sax contains any restricted materials like African mahogany in original pads
• Label clearly as 'professional musical instrument' to distinguish from student models in subheading 9205.90.40
• Budget for potential acoustic testing at customs to prove functionality over decorative use
