Import Tips
• Verify racket length under 22 inches and head width to confirm racquetball classification, avoiding overlap with squash rackets
• Include strung vs unstrung status in documentation; strung rackets require string material disclosure for fiber content rules
• Label products clearly as 'racquetball' to prevent reclassification during customs exam; provide court-specific use evidence if challenged
