Import Tips
• Use BIS or lab certifications to prove unwrought status and avoid duties on wrought articles under 8111.00.50.00
• Declare exact weight and form (slab/ingot) on commercial invoice; discrepancies lead to exams
• Avoid pitfall of classifying remelted scrap as unwrought; source from primary producers only
