Import Tips
• Provide duplex certification showing balanced austenitic-ferritic structure; mislabeling as standard stainless can trigger audits
• Confirm no cladding or coatings, as metal coating counts as 'further worked' and changes classification
• For large plates, ensure proper packing to prevent damage—no duty reduction for pre-entry rust per Chapter rules
