Import Tips
• Submit chemical analysis reports proving molybdenum content for 316L grade and confirm no 'further worked' treatments like polishing per Chapter notes
• Declare exact dimensions precisely; exceeding 1575 mm width shifts to different statistical suffix
• Avoid common pitfall of coil imports—ensure product is presented flat, as coils classify under different headings like 7219.11
