Import Tips
• Include specifications on wire gauge and crown width in commercial invoices for accurate classification
• Galvanized or coated staples require documentation on coating type to avoid reclassification
• Avoid declaring as 'upholstery supplies' which could lead to Chapter 59 textile classification errors
