Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify voltage compatibility (110-120V for US) and include ETL/UL certification to avoid customs holds

• Declare as 'domestic space heater' with wattage specs; misclassification as industrial can trigger higher duties

• Provide manufacturer test reports for safety standards to prevent FDA/CPSC scrutiny on heating elements
