Import Tips
• Provide detailed alloy composition certificates confirming tin predominance and zinc under 10% to verify bronze classification
• Ensure ingots are free of impurities exceeding subheading tolerances; test reports prevent reclassification as waste
• Declare exact weight and dimensions; bulk shipments often trigger valuation disputes
