Import Tips
• Document brass alloy composition (e.g
• via spectrometry) to distinguish from plated steel, a common CBP scrutiny point
• Label with country of origin and fiber content if any textile shade elements; comply with energy efficiency standards
• Bundle cords and plugs properly to prevent reclassification as incomplete assemblies
