Import Tips
• Include SOLAS approval and throw test certification; commercial life rings have stricter standards than recreational
• Label with '20-inch life ring' diameter and shipboard use restrictions per 46 CFR
• Import as individual units, not bulk kapok material which classifies under Chapter 56 wadding
