Import Tips
• Document controller integration and color modes as tree-enhancing features to support 9405.39.00 over broader LED categories
• Ensure voltage compatibility (120V US standard) and provide FCC compliance statements to prevent holds at customs
• Avoid generic packaging; label clearly as 'Christmas tree lights' to distinguish from party strings
