Import Tips
• Verify capacitance, voltage rating, and ESR values match datasheet specs for customs classification under tantalum fixed capacitors
• Include RoHS compliance certificates and material safety data sheets to avoid delays in electronics import inspections
• Package in anti-static reels or trays; declare exact quantity per reel to prevent undervaluation penalties
