Import Tips
• Include technical datasheets specifying lid-forming parameters; CBP often requests proof distinguishing from body stock
• Label shipments clearly as 'Lid Stock - Not for Body' to prevent commingling errors in warehouses
• Check for minimum order quantities from mills; small lots may face higher scrutiny on alloy certification
