Import Tips & Compliance

• Provide blade specifications and motor wattage in invoices; pitfall is misdeclaring as a toy, leading to Chapter 95

• Comply with lithium battery shipping regs (UN3480/3481); test reports required for customs clearance

• Label with country of motor assembly if multi-origin components to aid origin determination
