Import Tips & Compliance
• Automotive importers should include AEC-Q200 qualification documents to support classification and tariff treatment
• Ensure packaging labels specify 'variable resistor, metal glaze' to avoid fixed resistor confusion at entry
• For mixed shipments with capacitors/inductors, separate invoicing prevents set classification under 8536
