Import Tips
• Label as 'medical grade' with biocompatibility certs; ensure no seams to stay in 3926.20.10
• Provide weight % analysis for polyethylene monomer per subheading (a)(1); blends risk reclassification
• Avoid declaring as household items (3924 excluded for certain articles per notes); specify medical end-use
