Import Tips & Compliance

Confirm <1% zinc content per Chapter 74 copper-nickel alloy definition to avoid nickel silver classification

End-use statement specifying 'papermaking Fourdrinier forming wire' prevents machinery part reclassification

Large diameter rolls (>3m width) common—declare dimensions accurately for valuation
