- Verify Material: Ensure the product is indeed made of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) and not a composite or mixed material, which may change the classification.
- Check Unit Price: The total tax rate is based on the declared value, so accurate pricing is essential.
- Certifications: Confirm if any certifications (e.g., RoHS, REACH, or local import permits) are required for the product in the destination country.
- Consult Customs Broker: For complex cases, especially if the product is borderline between different HS codes.
