Import Tips
• Verify the brush's value does not exceed 40¢ per unit with detailed invoices to avoid reclassification to higher duty subheadings
• Label products clearly as 'hairbrushes for personal use' and include material composition (e.g
• nylon bristles, plastic body) for CBP compliance
• Avoid common pitfalls like mixing with higher-value items in shipments, which could trigger average value calculations and duty increases
