Import Tips

• Ensure supplier certifications confirm 100% paper pulp construction to distinguish from plastic-coated or laminated alternatives

• Comply with US food safety regs by testing for migration limits; retain certificates for CBP review

• Avoid bulk packaging over 500 units per carton to prevent damage claims during ocean freight
