Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify the part is solely for seats (not general use) with manufacturer specs to avoid misclassification as Section XV metal parts

• Include detailed assembly diagrams in documentation proving it's a replacement for 9401 seats

• Check for upholstery content; if over 10% textile, additional fiber labeling may be required
