Import Tips
• Label clearly as 'tube' not 'pipe'; trade names don't affect classification but aid Customs review
• Galvanization must be hot-dip per industry standards; electro-galvanized may face scrutiny
• Provide tariff shift documentation if fabricated from imported sheet to qualify for preferential duties
