Import Tips
• Provide engineering diagrams showing the mechanical sweeping mechanism to distinguish from simple push brooms during customs review
• Label products clearly as 'manual carpet sweepers' and avoid vacuum-like marketing to prevent reclassification
• Check for lead content in metal components per CPSIA, as household cleaning tools often undergo safety scrutiny
