Import Tips
• Confirm expanded metal meets Chapter definition (slit/stretched sheet); rolled wire mesh may classify differently
• Entry docs should specify exact cut measurements and aperture size to prove 'cut to shape' status
• Avoid reclassification by ensuring not presented as finished window part (7308.90 range)
