Import Tips

Verify thickness measurement excludes any backing and confirm via lab testing to ensure compliance with the 0.2 mm limit

Provide mill certificates proving aluminum purity (at least 99% non-alloyed) to avoid misclassification as alloyed foil

Avoid common pitfalls like declaring as 'backed' if no actual backing is present, which shifts to other subheadings
