Import Tips & Compliance

• Provide evidence of compatibility only with paintball markers to distinguish from general airsoft or BB loaders

• Declare electronic components separately if applicable, but aggregate under paintball parts per HTS notes

• Avoid common pitfall of undervaluing high-tech feeders; use transaction value with comparable sales data
