Import Tips
• Obtain ATF import permit and comply with ITAR regulations for ammunition; ensure end-user certificates are provided
• Declare exact caliber, projectile weight, and powder type on commercial invoice to avoid misclassification
• Verify state-specific restrictions on handgun ammunition; common pitfall is failing to separate components if valued individually
