Import Tips

• Verify stainless steel composition meets Chapter 72 definitions via mill test certificates to confirm classification

• Ensure coils are measured for exact thickness (3-4.75mm) and width (>600mm) at entry to avoid reclassification

• Declare as 'not annealed or not pickled' explicitly; common pitfall is misstating surface treatment status
