Import Tips & Compliance

Provide dopant concentration reports (e.g

10^15 atoms/cm³) and wafer specs to avoid reclassification

Ensure compliance with USITC semiconductor import quotas if applicable; label as 'not for defense use' if civilian

Use vacuum-sealed packaging to maintain surface cleanliness; beware of tariffs from specific origins
