Import Tips
• Verify spring dimensions and material certification to confirm iron/steel composition; obtain supplier declarations for alloy type to avoid reclassification
• Common pitfall: mislabeling as wire (under 16mm cross-section) per Chapter 73 note
• Ensure country-of-origin marking for anti-dumping scrutiny on steel products
