Import Tips
• Obtain certified assay reports verifying manganese content ≥20% on dry weight basis to avoid reclassification
• Declare net dry weight accurately, as moisture content affects duty calculation; provide drying method documentation
• Check for ferruginous impurities; if iron dominates, it may shift to iron ore headings
