Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificates verifying exact nickel (0.5-24%) and molybdenum (1.5-5%) content to avoid reclassification
• Ensure product is not further worked beyond hot-rolling; any polishing or coating shifts to 7219.14 or 7219.90
• Declare thickness precisely as 3-4.75 mm; deviations lead to adjacent subheadings like 7219.12 or 7219.14
