Import Tips

Verify exact wire diameter with caliper measurement as customs strictly enforces the 0.18 mm threshold for this subheading

Provide mill test reports certifying copper purity and enamel insulation type to avoid reclassification

Declare spool weight net of packaging to prevent overpayment on non-dutiable materials
