Import Tips
• Verify metal composition exceeds 50% by weight to qualify under metal furniture headings; provide mill test certificates
• Ensure labeling complies with FTC country-of-origin rules for retail display items
• Avoid misclassification as parts by importing fully assembled units, not loose shelves
