Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify the product meets the definition of a stationary activity center with fixed metal frame and child-safety certifications like ASTM F963

• Provide detailed photos and assembly instructions in documentation to confirm upholstery and seating function over toy elements

• Avoid misclassification as toys by emphasizing the primary seat function; common pitfall is overlooking metal frame composition requirements
