Import Tips

• Verify the anvil's base metal composition (e.g

• cast iron) meets Chapter 82 definitions to avoid reclassification

• Include blacksmith certification or end-use declaration if importing in bulk for commercial forges

• Watch for pitting or damage during shipping; declare weight accurately to prevent undervaluation penalties
