Import Tips
• Verify compatibility with specific umbrella models in headings 6601/6602 to confirm part status; generic metal rods may shift to Chapter 73
• Provide engineering diagrams or photos showing fitment to avoid classification as mere scrap metal
• Ensure no textile components are included, as those classify separately per Chapter Note to 6603
