Import Tips

• Verify child size/weight range labeling matches USCG standards (e.g

• 30-50 lbs) to avoid age-appropriate classification issues

• Include third-party test reports proving minimum buoyancy (22 lbs for child size) in import documentation

• Package individual lifejackets separately from bulk textiles to prevent grouping under heading 6307.90 as other articles
