Import Tips

• Verify material composition via lab testing to confirm plastic content exceeds 50% for accurate classification

• Include detailed assembly diagrams in documentation to prove it's a seat part, not general plastic article

• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as unfinished plastic sheets; ensure it's shaped and combined for seat use
