Import Tips
• Verify wire diameter does not exceed 16 mm per Chapter 73 note to avoid reclassification as 'wire' products
• Provide mill test certificates confirming iron/steel composition to prevent disputes at customs
• Label chains clearly as 'industrial use' to distinguish from ornamental types that may shift to Chapter 83
