Import Tips

• Provide automotive manufacturer specs and groove patterns in documentation for accurate 'other keys' classification

• Avoid common pitfall of classifying with transponder chips, which may require 8512.90 for electrical parts

• Ensure country-of-melt reporting for steel keys to comply with Section 232 tariffs if applicable
