Import Tips
• Document closure method (crimping/soldering only) as mechanical lids could reclassify under fitted equipment subheadings
• Ensure no internal coatings qualify as 'heat insulated'; plain steel avoids higher insulated container duties
• Batch test for exact capacity to prevent statistical reporting errors in 11.4-26.6L bracket
