Import Tips
• Verify foil thickness excludes any backing and certify purity as non-alloyed aluminum per chapter notes to avoid misclassification
• Provide mill test certificates confirming weight ≤11.3kg and thickness specs; declare exact net weight to prevent customs disputes
• Ensure proper packaging documentation as 'boxed' to distinguish from rolls; watch for anti-dumping duties on certain origins
