Import Tips
• Obtain third-party testing for asbestos absence to meet EPA and customs import standards
• Include detailed invoices specifying 'corrugated sheets' to prevent confusion with excluded Chapter 94 building articles
• Watch for valuation pitfalls; freight costs on bulky sheets can inflate duty calculations
