Import Tips

• Certify exact cross-sectional area measurement (≥232 cm²) and circular shape via mill test certificate to avoid reclassification to smaller size subheadings

• Provide chemical composition analysis confirming stainless steel status (min 10.5% chromium) as per Chapter 72 notes to prevent duty disputes

• Avoid claims for rust/discoloration allowances per U.S

• Note, as no reductions apply to semi-finished steel products
