Import Tips
• Include ink composition analysis (pigment vs dye) in documentation; technical pens with dye shift to 9608.20
• Label sets by line width to demonstrate drawing specificity, preventing generic pen classification
• Register with CBP for repeat imports to streamline examination of technical specifications
