Import Tips
• Verify the chalk is specifically marketed for billiards cues, not general drawing, to avoid reclassification as art supplies
• Include detailed product specs and billiards usage photos in documentation to prove tariff classification
• Watch for minimum packaging requirements; bulk chalk may shift to a different subheading if not retail-ready
