Import Tips
• Verify wire diameter does not exceed 16 mm per Chapter 73 note and confirm one-piece construction without separate heads
• Provide detailed specifications on collation type (wire coil) and gauge to avoid misclassification as strip collated
• Include coating details like galvanization in documentation to support duty rate claims
