Import Tips
• Provide spectrochemical analysis confirming beryllium copper alloy per subheading note definitions
• Declare as 'in coils' if applicable; uncoiled sheets may trigger different width assessments
• Ensure FDA compliance if for medical devices; beryllium toxicity requires handling certifications
