Import Tips & Compliance

Label as 'clarinet-specific' with mouthpiece compatibility to distinguish from universal reed holders

Provide material certificates (e.g

nickel-plated brass) for accurate duty assessment

Bundle with reeds only if imported as a set; separate shipments avoid set classification issues
