Import Tips

Verify base metal composition (e.g

steel, zinc) via material certificates to confirm Chapter 83 classification

Include detailed invoices specifying 'for doors' use to prevent misclassification as hardware parts

Check for anti-dumping duties on Chinese steel products; common pitfall is undervaluation
