Import Tips
• Certify molybdenum content (2-3% for 316L) via chemical analysis reports to distinguish from standard grades and avoid reclassification
• Document hot-rolling process and inspect for pickling evidence; CBP may require photos of mill scale
• Check for Section 232 tariffs on stainless steel; maintain records showing non-high-strength per Chapter 72 note (a)
