Import Tips

• Verify string tension and material specs in documentation to confirm 'strung' status and avoid reclassification to unstrung rackets (9506.51.40)

• Include manufacturer specs showing tennis-specific design (e.g

• head size, balance point) to distinguish from badminton rackets

• Label fiber composition of strings and frame accurately to prevent issues with material-based challenges
