Import Tips

• Verify the set contains at least two different subheading items (e.g

• pens + pencils) to avoid reclassification as individual items

• Include detailed packing lists specifying quantities and types from each 9608 subheading for CBP review

• Ensure retail packaging labels the contents clearly to prevent duties under separate headings
