Import Tips
• 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
