Import Tips

• Verify material composition via lab testing to confirm 'other materials' status (e.g

• brass > zinc alloys) and avoid reclassification to 8481.80.30

• Include detailed CAD drawings and installation instructions in documentation to prove it's a complete hand-operated faucet, not parts

• Ensure compliance with NSF/ANSI 61 standards for lead-free content; common pitfall is missing certifications leading to CBP holds
