Import Tips & Compliance

Verify the appliance has a self-contained electric motor under 250W typical for domestic use to avoid reclassification to industrial machinery

Include detailed spec sheets showing food processing functions and household voltage compatibility (110-120V) in import documentation

Ensure FDA compliance for food-contact parts with certifications like NSF; common pitfall is missing material safety declarations
