Import Tips & Compliance
β’ Include proof of weldability certification; non-compliant material leads to duty reassessment
β’ Declare total length accurately, as partial reels are common pitfalls for undervaluation claims
β’ Galvanized versions require separate HTS if coating exceeds 5% weight; test and document
