Import Tips
• Describe decorative elements in invoices but emphasize primary function as hair-securing pins to maintain classification
• Avoid importing in sets with combs, as sets may require principal article classification
• Test for colorfastness if enamel-coated to meet import quality standards and prevent rejections
