Import Tips

• Verify the tool is not power-operated, as those fall under Chapter 84; provide detailed specs on manual use

• Include material composition certificates (e.g

• carbon steel) to avoid misclassification as machinery parts

• Check for anti-dumping duties on steel products from certain origins like China
