Import Tips & Compliance

• Emphasize narrow kerf and fine blades in description to justify artisan metalworking classification

• Avoid generic 'hobby saw' labeling that could lead to toy or consumer good misclassification

• Certify absence of diamond/cermet-specific tooling if seeking base metal rate
