Import Tips & Compliance
• Document hair origin (e.g
• sable) to avoid CITES restrictions on animal products; declare as 'artist's brush' explicitly
• Bulk packaging must list per-unit value; separate from sets to prevent reclassification under 9603.90
• Test for lead-free compliance in handles; common pitfall is mixing with cosmetic brushes triggering exclusions
