Import Tips
• Include heat analysis reports specifying molybdenum content for 316L to distinguish from standard 316 and support stainless classification
• Declare as semi-finished, not further worked (no polishing/coating per Chapter notes), to stay in heading 7218 rather than bars heading 7222
• Check for Section 232 tariffs on large stainless billets; maintain origin certificates for quota applicability
