Import Tips
• Verify container capacity exceeds 1 liter with precise measurements to avoid misclassification into lower-capacity subheadings
• Provide lab analysis or supplier certification confirming it's ordinary glass, not lead crystal, to prevent shifts to higher-duty codes
• Ensure food-grade compliance; include FDA registration and material safety data sheets to avoid holds at entry
