Import Tips
• Specify length in invoices (52" standard for solo); different lengths serve different canoe types affecting use classification
• Test for formaldehyde emissions if any glues used in lamination; TSCA Title VI compliance required
• Bundle paddle pairs properly; loose packing leads to damage claims and inspection delays
