-

Anti-dumping duties:
Not applicable for PVC drain fittings, as these are not typically subject to anti-dumping duties on iron or aluminum. -
Material and Certification Requirements:
- Confirm the material composition (e.g., is it 100% PVC? Are there additives or other materials?)
- Verify if certifications (e.g., ISO, CE, or local regulatory approvals) are required for import into the destination country.
- Ensure unit price and product description align with the HS code classification to avoid misclassification penalties.
✅ Proactive Advice for Importers
- Double-check the HS code based on the exact product description and material (e.g., whether it's a fitting, pipe, or unprocessed tube).
- Review the April 11, 2025 tariff change and factor it into your import cost calculations.
- Consult with customs brokers or classification experts if the product is borderline between multiple HS codes.
- Keep documentation ready (e.g., material certificates, product specifications) to support the declared HS code and avoid delays at customs.
