Import Tips
• Label shipments clearly as 'for clothing use' to distinguish from industrial rivets and ensure correct heading
• Provide photos or samples showing rough finish to confirm compliance with 'not machined' requirement
• Avoid bundling with finished garments to prevent classification as parts of sets under different duties
