Import Tips

• Verify the surface material (e.g

• porcelain or painted steel) meets writing/drawing specifications; non-writing surfaces may reclassify

• Include invoices detailing frame material and dimensions to avoid scrutiny under furniture headings

• Ensure proper labeling for educational use to prevent misclassification as toys under Chapter 95
