Import Tips

• Provide chemical compatibility certifications showing suitability for textile dyes to support 8451 classification

• Label with precise dimensions and material composition (e.g

• 316 stainless steel) to meet customs valuation requirements

• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as pump parts (8413); emphasize textile dyeing end-use in invoices
