Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify the handle is predominantly wood (not plastic or composite) to qualify under 8211.92.60.00; provide material certification if requested by customs
• Include detailed blade specs and confirm fixed-blade design (no folding mechanism) in commercial invoice to avoid reclassification
• Ensure compliance with US blade length regulations and labeling for hunting use to prevent FDA or CBP holds
