Import Tips & Compliance

• Label parts clearly as 'for bentwood seats' to avoid reclassification as general wood products

• Ensure ISPM 15 compliance for wooden packaging and the part itself to prevent quarantine issues

• Document end-use as replacement for convertible or non-convertible seats, per Chapter 94 notes
