Import Tips & Compliance

Label products clearly as 'shower faucets' with flow rate specs to distinguish from mixing valves; mislabeling causes delays

Provide supplier affidavits on alloy composition (e.g

Zamak zinc) to support 'other materials' claim during entry

Watch for anti-dumping duties on certain Asian zinc faucets; check Commerce scope rulings
