Import Tips & Compliance

Require ISO 9001 or IATF 16949 certification from suppliers for quality assurance

Declare as 'chemical element silicon' not 'semiconductor material' to prevent premature Chapter 85 classification

Monitor for Section 301 tariffs if originating from China due to technology sector restrictions
