Import Tips
• Label products clearly as 'window fittings for buildings' to distinguish from coachwork or furniture latches
• Ensure compliance with building codes (e.g
• ASTM standards) and include test reports in documentation
• Watch for undervaluation pitfalls; provide comparable sales data for fair market value assessment
