Import Tips
• Verify zinc coating thickness meets ASTM A123 standards to avoid reclassification as uncoated wire products
• Provide mill test reports confirming wire diameter under 16mm and galvanized finish for smooth customs clearance
• Avoid common pitfalls by ensuring panels are not pre-assembled into full fences, which could shift to Chapter 73 structures
