Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificates confirming stainless steel grade, exact thickness >6.8mm, and width specs to avoid misclassification
• Ensure no 'further worked' treatments like polishing per Chapter 72 notes
• Declare precise dimensions as customs verifies coil measurements against HTS subheading limits
