Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify material composition to confirm classification under Chapter 42; nylon excludes it from plastics sheeting in 3923

• Provide detailed invoices specifying 'dog leash' to avoid misclassification as general pet toy

• Ensure no prohibited materials like certain metals that could shift to Section XV
