Import Tips
• Conduct proper country-of-melt-and-pour documentation for steel components to comply with trade remedy orders
• Avoid misdeclaration as general scissors; specify 'pinking mechanism for fray prevention' in invoices
• For bulk imports, ensure packaging doesn't suggest retail sets that could trigger set classification rules
