9114
classification. A more robust, general-purpose tool leans towards8205
. - Certification: Depending on the destination country, you may need certifications related to tool safety or material composition.
- Declare accurately: Provide a detailed description of the tool to customs to avoid delays or penalties.
- Check with Customs: It's always best to confirm the correct HS code with the customs authorities in the importing country. They have the final say.
- Single Declaration: If the tool is a component of a larger watch repair kit, the entire kit may have a different HS code.
