- • Fasteners are typically classified under HS Chapter 73 for import into Benin — confirm the exact HS subheading and current duty rate with your customs broker.

Minimum Order — Container Quantity (Approx.)
A standard 20ft container (~20 tons) typically holds several million pieces of sheet metal screws in common sizes. Exact quantity depends on length and gauge and is confirmed at quote time.
You don't need a full container to order. Hurain Engitech & Trade — the group Global Fasteners Exports operates under — regularly ships smaller, partial-container (LCL) orders of just a few pallets or boxes for buyers who don't yet need FCL volume, consolidated with other cargo to keep freight cost reasonable.
