Import Tips
• Verify the toy is at least 50% vulcanized rubber by weight to qualify under Chapter 40; provide material composition certificates
• Ensure no prohibited additives like textiles that would shift classification to Chapter 39 or 95
• Label as 'pet toy' to avoid scrutiny as human toy under Chapter 95; include safety test reports for pet ingestion risks
