Import Tips
• Document edge profile continuity with cross-section diagrams; CBP often requests for 'dedicated use' verification
• Comply with U.S. building codes (e.g
• ASTM standards); non-compliance leads to refused entry or re-export
• Avoid bulk packaging that damages edges; use protective corner guards to prevent reclassification as scrap
