Import Tips
• Verify aluminum content exceeds 50% by weight with mill test certificates to confirm classification under this subheading
• Ensure structural compliance with local building codes (e.g
• AASHTO standards) and provide engineering specs for customs valuation
• Avoid misclassification as finished luminaires by importing poles without pre-installed light sources or wiring
