Import Tips
• Include engineering specs proving lid's vacuum seal function to distinguish from general closures
• Label with part numbers matching specific vacuum vessel models for customs valuation and classification
• Avoid bundling with glass inners in shipments, as that could reclassify as complete vessels under 9617.00.10
