Import Tips
• Verify tool material (e.g
• HSS vs cobalt) and dimensions for accurate HTS subheading; misclassification risks penalties
• Include detailed invoices specifying 'reamers for metalworking, not gun reamers' to avoid reclassification as parts
• Comply with ISO standards documentation for precision tools; common pitfall is omitting country-of-melt for steel content
