Import Tips
• Document duplex microstructure via mill certs; standard 316 certs won't suffice for dual-phase alloys
• Ensure coils remain in coiled form at entry; straightened sheets move to different subheadings
• Comply with Section 232 steel tariffs if applicable; quota tracking required for certain origins
