Import Tips & Compliance

Verify the brush value exceeds 40¢ per unit with invoices; undervaluation leads to CBP reclassification and penalties

Include material composition labels (e.g

boar bristle, nylon) for FDA cosmetic accessory compliance

Avoid misclassifying as a set if sold with combs; separate HTS for components
