Import Tips
• Label fiber content if synthetic yarn is used in core; declare leather source to comply with trade agreement preferences
• Provide lab test reports for bounce and compression to distinguish from softballs during customs inspection
• Avoid bulk packaging over 12 dozen per carton to prevent scrutiny as commercial vs retail goods
