Import Tips
• Provide evidence of the self-contained motor and heating element integration to distinguish from basic electric kettles
• Ensure compliance with UL safety standards for steam-producing appliances to prevent customs holds
• Label capacity and auto-shutoff features clearly, as these affect valuation for duty calculation
