Import Tips
• Verify alloy composition meets copper-zinc base alloy definition (zinc > other elements, Ni <5%, Sn <3%) with mill test certificates
• Ensure thickness >0.15mm measured accurately; thinner material shifts to Chapter 74 strip headings
• Declare as 'not further worked' - any surface treatment like polishing may require 7410 classification
