Import Tips
• Declare brass alloy content accurately to comply with metal import regulations and prevent undervaluation penalties
• Use HTS-specific invoices noting 'sliders for slide fasteners' to distinguish from general hardware under Chapter 83
• Test for lead/phthalate content if destined for apparel, as REACH-like rules may apply even for parts
