Import Tips
• Include galvanization specs in documentation to confirm it meets anti-corrosion standards without reclassifying as coated wire
• Ensure country-of-origin marking on spools or packaging for chains over 1 meter to comply with CBP rules
• Avoid bundling with hooks as sets, which could shift to 7326 for steel articles
