Import Tips
• Verify HSS composition with mill certificates to avoid reclassification as lower-grade steel tools
• Declare bit sizes and materials accurately; mismatches lead to penalties under HTS statistical notes
• Package as individual tools, not sets with non-8205 items, to prevent heading 8215 classification
