Import Tips & Compliance

Verify shank/thread diameter exceeds 6mm via caliper measurement to confirm 7318.15.80.20 classification; smaller sizes shift to other subheadings

Include material test certificates (e.g

alloy steel composition) for customs valuation and anti-dumping checks on steel products

Avoid misclassification as bolts by ensuring no head protrusion and documenting end-use as fixed-position fasteners
