Import Tips
• Verify the lights are 'of a kind used for Christmas trees' per HTS notes to avoid reclassification; provide design intent documentation
• Ensure UL or ETL certification for electrical safety to meet US import standards and prevent CBP holds
• Declare exact length and bulb count accurately, as statistical suffixes may apply for reporting
