Import Tips
• Use HTS statistical annotations in entry summaries to specify subheading 90.30 and avoid defaulting to broader 'other parts' categories
• Conduct material testing if partially plastic to confirm not classifiable under Chapter 39 plastics exclusions
• Bundle with assembly instructions but declare as parts only, not kits, to prevent set classification issues
