Import Tips

• Declare lotion content percentage (<5% typical) on entry; high additive levels risk reclass to cosmetics in Chapter 33

• Obtain supplier certifications for pulp origin to meet Lacey Act if wood fibers involved

• Avoid 'hypoallergenic' claims without substantiation, as FTC enforces truthful labeling on imports
