Import Tips

• Verify tool material (e.g

• steel composition) meets US safety standards like ANSI to avoid customs holds

• Include detailed invoices specifying 'pliers, not parts' to prevent misclassification as components

• Check for anti-dumping duties on Chinese-made pliers; source certificates of origin for duty savings
