Import Tips

• Provide adhesive composition breakdown; ensure no hazardous VOCs per EPA regs to prevent CBP holds

• Label as 'self-adhesive' explicitly; pitfall is misdeclaring as non-adhesive leading to wrong duty rate

• Test for wear layer thickness (min 6 mil) with reports; bulk shipments often need anti-dumping checks from China
