Import Tips
• Test for impregnation depth (not just surface coating) to meet 'impregnated' criterion and provide assay reports
• Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring as 'uncoated'—detailed coating specs prevent duty underpayments or penalties
• Consult USTR for current 631 quota utilization before large shipments to avoid entry refusals
