Import Tips

Certify exact diameter measurement (0.25-0.76 mm) with mill test reports to avoid reclassification to adjacent size subheadings

Provide chemical composition analysis confirming stainless steel status per Chapter 72 notes to prevent duty disputes

Declare if 'further worked' (e.g

coated); uncoated drawn wire qualifies here—common pitfall is misdeclaring polished wire
