Import Tips

Include thermocouple type certification (e.g

Type J, T) linking alloy to exact composition for binding ruling requests

Document plating as functional (not decorative) to avoid misclassification into base metal articles of Chapter 83

Bundle wire in non-commercial quantities under ≤$800 to leverage de minimis exemption where applicable
