Import Tips
• Include material composition analysis to prove it's not an acoustic piano part (which might differ)
• Document as 'aftermarket part for 9202 digital pianos' to prevent reclassification as unfinished instrument
• Avoid bulk shipments without individual packaging, as sets may trigger 9202 classification
