Import Tips
• Include thickness specs (<0.2mm for foil) in invoices to distinguish from strip/sheet and avoid 8102.95.30 misclassification
• Certify non-sintered process; importers often overlook this, leading to duty disputes
• Label as 'not for nuclear use' if applicable, to bypass ITAR export controls on import side
