Import Tips
• Verify the frame is primarily metal (e.g
• aluminum) via material testing to avoid reclassification to wooden or plastic frames
• Include assembly instructions and confirm stability for outdoor use to meet safety standards like ASTM F833 for folding chairs
• Declare as 'outdoor' with weather-resistant features; common pitfall is mislabeling indoor chairs, leading to audits
