Import Tips
• Verify tin purity exceeds 99% with no bismuth or copper over limits via certified mill test reports to confirm unalloyed status
• Measure and document exact thickness (>0.2mm) with caliper readings to avoid reclassification to thinner strips
• Include material safety data sheets (MSDS) for hazardous metal handling during customs inspection
