Import Tips
• Include CPSC certification and age label photos in entry documentation to confirm compliance
• Declare as 'new' only if unsold to end-user per statistical notes; used vehicles require separate reporting
• Watch for misclassification as toys if marketed to youth under 16, which could shift to Chapter 95
