Import Tips
• Verify compatibility with specific static converter models via OEM part numbers to avoid misclassification as general semiconductors
• Include detailed technical specs and end-use certificates to prove it's a dedicated static converter component
• Watch for anti-dumping duties on certain Asian-sourced IGBT modules; check Commerce Department listings
