Import Tips & Compliance

β€’ Include material permeability data (ΞΌ > 1000) and frequency specs to distinguish from generic ceramics

β€’ Document intended inductor assembly to avoid reclassification as ceramic wares (6909)

β€’ Check for radiation-hardened variants which may require special export licenses
