Import Tips
• Include FCC compliance for electromagnetic interference and energy efficiency labels per DOE standards
• Describe precisely as 'domestic milk frothing heater' to distinguish from blenders (8509.40)
• Watch for battery-powered models; classify under 8509 if no heating function dominates
