Import Tips
• Label with exact polymer type (e.g
• polypropylene per subheading note (a)) and capacity in liters/gallons for CBP verification
• For food-contact potential, ensure FDA compliance documentation even for cleaning pails to preempt reclassification
• Avoid bulk packaging over 50 units per carton if claiming 'retail' rates—excess may trigger 3923 bulk container rules
