Import Tips

• Document as 'shoulder reinforcement parts' with diagrams; avoid 'padding' alone to prevent wadding classification

• Test for fill content (e.g

• polyester) per 16 CFR labeling; common issue is bulk import mistaken for toys

• Ensure made-up status with binding to qualify under Chapter 62 parts
