Import Tips
• Include chemical analysis showing predominant vinyl chloride monomer (>95% per notes) to prevent copolymer misclassification
• Measure and document all cross-sectional dimensions exceeding 1 mm; samples may be requested by customs
• Avoid bundling with fittings, as that could invoke 3917 free rate restrictions
