Import Tips
• Verify the ball's inflation capability and material composition to confirm classification under inflatable balls; deflated balls may be scrutinized
• Include detailed specifications on bladder type and cover material in documentation to avoid misclassification as non-inflatable
• Ensure compliance with CPSC standards for sports equipment if intended for consumer sale in the US
