Import Tips
• Verify FDA registration as a Class I medical device and include user manual confirming AC adapter powering
• Declare exact voltage compatibility (e.g
• 110-120V) to avoid electrical safety import restrictions
• Avoid misclassification as toys by providing therapeutic use evidence; common pitfall is missing power cord labeling
