⚠️ Important Notes and Recommendations
- Material Verification: Confirm whether the product is a silicon wafer (38180000xx) or a solar cell (85414200xx), as this determines the correct HS CODE.
- Unit Price and Certification: Ensure the product is properly documented with technical specifications and certifications (e.g., doping type, purity level, and application).
- April 11, 2025 Policy: Be aware of the special tariff increase after this date, which may significantly affect import costs.
- Anti-dumping Duties: Not applicable for silicon wafers, but always verify for any new trade measures or restrictions.
✅ Proactive Advice
- Double-check the product's exact composition and use (e.g., monocrystalline vs. polycrystalline, silicon vs. silicon carbide).
- Consult with customs brokers or import agents to ensure compliance with local regulations and documentation.
- Monitor updates from customs authorities regarding HS CODE changes or new tariff policies.
