Import Tips

Verify hardened steel content and cable construction via material certificates to confirm classification under 8301.10.60.20

Measure lock width precisely (must be ≤3.8 cm) and document cylinder/pin tumbler mechanism for CBP review

Avoid misclassification as standard padlocks (8301.10.20); highlight anti-cut cable in invoices to prevent duty disputes
