Import Tips & Compliance

β€’ Provide JIS/ISO certification; metric chains often face origin scrutiny due to Asian manufacturing dominance

β€’ Document roller diameter precisely (<16mm wire dimension compliant) to avoid Chapter 73 wire reclassification

β€’ Use HTSUS statistical note references for multi-strand reporting accuracy
