Import Tips
• Verify FDA 510(k) clearance or registration for medical device classification to avoid reclassification as general purpose
• Include lot numbers and manufacturing details on packaging for traceability as required by medical import regulations
• Test for powder residue limits (<2mg/glove) to comply with USP standards and prevent customs holds
