Import Tips & Compliance

Label as horticultural use only to prevent reclassification as industrial equipment; include material composition (e.g

steel grade)

For small garden tools, bundle under one entry but declare quantity accurately to avoid undervaluation penalties

Check for rust-proofing compliance with USDA import regs for ag tools entering the US
