Import Tips
• Verify alloy composition certificates to confirm chromium, molybdenum, tungsten, or vanadium levels meet the >0.2% or >0.1% thresholds
• Include detailed technical specs and material analysis in import documentation to avoid misclassification as lower-duty basic taps
• Ensure tools are marked as 'interchangeable for machine tools' if applicable to prevent reclassification under handtool parts
