Import Tips
• Verify the tool is primarily for household use, not professional kitchens, to avoid reclassification under industrial headings
• Provide material composition certificates confirming iron or steel construction exceeding 50% by weight
• Label products clearly as household tools to prevent customs disputes on end-use
