Import Tips
• Verify extinguisher meets UL or equivalent standards like EN3 for customs compliance and labeling requirements
• Include DOT/UN certification for charged models containing pressurized gases to avoid shipping delays
• Declare exact charge type (e.g
• ABC powder) accurately, as misclassification to uncharged units can trigger audits
