Import Tips

• Verify nickel purity exceeds 99% to confirm non-alloyed status; provide mill test certificates

• Document cold-forming process in manufacturing records to avoid reclassification as hot-formed

• Ensure wire diameter specs match HTS description; common pitfall is mislabeling as alloyed
