Import Tips
• Provide shipping marks and dangerous goods certifications if containing hazardous oils to comply with transport regs
• Document inner lining (if any) as it must not include heat insulation to stay in this subheading
• Measure internal volume precisely; slight overages could trigger reclassification to 50L+ categories
