I am uncertain as to the HTSUS classification of my product. Should I apply to CBP for a binding ruling?
Binding rulings are tricky because they are binding on the requester. Once obtained, whether you like it or not, you are bound to follow CBP's decision or go through the process of protesting it.
Thorough classification research should be completed prior to submitting a request for a binding ruling, identifying the competing provisions and making an argument for the classification that is most beneficial.
It is not advisable to send a product sample to CBP with a simple request for a classification. It is always best to make a case for the outcome you want to achieve by presenting the proper legal arguments.
