Import Tips
• Verify alloy composition via certified mill test reports to confirm zinc predominance and compliance with subheading note (a) for brasses
• Ensure dimensions meet 'bars and rods' criteria (not hollow or too thin for wire); common pitfall is misclassifying as profiles
• Provide documentation on end-use if industrial to avoid reclassification as finished goods
