Import Tips
• Include detailed specifications like penny size (16d) and shank type in commercial invoice for accurate duty assessment
• Ensure no copper-plating on heads, as that could trigger exclusion notes and reclassification
• Bulk shipments require proper palletizing and humidity protection to prevent corrosion during ocean transit
