Import Tips
• Specify notch spacing in commercial invoice; vague descriptions lead to 7326.90.8688 reclassification
• Test for galvanization thickness; heavy coatings may require Chapter 83 classification
• Separate braced posts from single units; bracing creates 'assemblies' under different provisions
