Import Tips & Compliance
• Obtain zinc alloy certification to distinguish from aluminum or steel for accurate subheading placement
• Check for Reach compliance if destined for EU markets, as zinc castings may contain restricted substances
• Document end-use as furniture or trunks to prevent reclassification as industrial hardware
