Import Tips
• Ensure packaging labels indicate 'for indoor domestic use only' to support classification and comply with CPSC regulations
• Provide test reports for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) as required for electronic heating appliances entering the U.S
• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as 'fans' (8414); emphasize heating function in product descriptions
