Import Tips
• Include biocompatibility certifications if end-use is medical to facilitate FDA compliance alongside CBP clearance
• Measure and document diameter precisely—tolerances outside 0.25-0.76 mm trigger reclassification
• Avoid declaring as 'further worked' if only drawn; polishing would move it out of this subheading
