Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 85% synthetic fibers via lab testing to avoid reclassification to cotton or other blends
• Include detailed invoices specifying 'window shades' not 'curtains' to prevent customs disputes over terminology
• Ensure compliance with CPSC safety standards for corded shades to mitigate recall risks post-import
