Import Tips
• Verify the hook's cross-sectional dimensions do not exceed 16 mm to confirm classification under Chapter 73 wire definition
• Provide material certificates confirming iron or steel composition to avoid reclassification as non-ferrous metals
• Label products clearly as 'screw hooks' to distinguish from plain hooks under 7316 or 8302
