Import Tips
• Provide chemical analysis report confirming low carbon content; CBP frequently tests for alloy status
• Measure and certify wire diameter precisely—tolerances outside 1.0-1.5 mm shift classification
• Avoid packing in coils over specified weights to prevent damage claims denial per Chapter 72 notes
