Import Tips
• Conduct monomer analysis if chemically modified to ensure predominant propylene units per subheading note (a)(3)
• Use invoices specifying 'strip for ribbon use only' to prevent misclassification as general packaging film
• Comply with CPSC labeling if marketed for children's crafts, avoiding lead/phthalate issues in plastics
