Import Tips
• Verify alloy composition certificates to confirm over 0.2% Cr/Mo/W or 0.1% V content for correct classification
• Provide detailed technical specs and material analysis reports to customs to avoid misclassification as basic tools
• Ensure tools are marked as 'interchangeable for machine-tools' to prevent reclassification under handtool headings
