Import Tips

Separately value and report the rifle and telescopic sight components as required by statistical note for 9303.30.80 to avoid duty miscalculation

Obtain ATF Form 6 import permit and ensure end-user certificates for non-ITAR compliance on sporting firearms

Verify scope is constructively separated in documentation to match HTS statistical suffixes and prevent reclassification
