Import Tips
• Verify broom width does not exceed 41 cm with precise measurements to avoid reclassification to wider broom subheadings
• Include detailed bristle material specs (e.g
• polypropylene) and photos in entry docs to confirm non-motorized status
• Watch for anti-dumping duties on Chinese brooms; obtain country-of-origin certificates early
