Import Tips
• Verify compatibility with specific washer models via OEM part numbers to avoid misclassification as universal parts
• Include detailed diagrams or service manuals in documentation proving it's a washing machine component, not general rubber goods
• Check for country-of-origin marking requirements; failure often leads to CBP holds on household appliance parts
