Import Tips & Compliance

Verify ESR and capacitance tolerance specs match declared values to avoid customs reclassification as variable capacitors

Include RoHS compliance certificates, as tantalum capacitors often contain hazardous substances requiring documentation

Package in anti-static reels or trays to prevent damage; declare as electronic components to qualify for potential duty reductions
