Import Tips
• Test beads for lead/phthalate compliance under CPSIA for devotional items; retain lab reports
• Declare exact bead count (e.g
• 59 beads) matching traditional rosary design to substantiate devotional claim
• Avoid bulk packaging resembling craft supplies, as it risks reclassification away from worn jewelry
