Import Tips

• Verify chromium and carbon content via certified lab analysis to confirm classification under 7202.49.50, avoiding misclassification as charge chrome

• Include mill test certificates (MTC) and chemical composition reports in documentation to satisfy CBP verification

• Beware of rust or discoloration; no duty allowance per Chapter 72 notes—ensure proper packaging for ocean transport
