Customer Reviews
The HS Code info is okay, but it would be great if the site noted *which* countries require certifications for material composition. It's mentioned, but not specific enough. Still a decent starting point though.
Good to see the tariff rate for 8302.10.30.00 is 64.5% as of May 12th. It's also a good reminder about the potential tariff changes coming in April 2025. Important to plan ahead!
I was a little confused about whether to use 8302.10.30.00 or 7308.30.50.50. The 'Important Considerations' section really helped me decide based on if the hinges are part of a larger door structure.
