Import Tips
• Ensure DOT (Department of Transportation) compliance certification for automotive glass mirrors to avoid customs holds
• Provide vehicle manufacturer specifications to confirm classification as rear-view mirrors rather than general mirrors
• Declare aspheric or convex elements accurately, as they must meet FMVSS 111 federal motor vehicle safety standards
