Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificates confirming nickel >0.5% and molybdenum 1.5-5% by weight to verify classification under 7219.22.0015
• Declare exact thickness (4.75-10 mm) and width (≤1575 mm) on entry documents; mismatches can lead to reclassification
• Avoid claims for rust discoloration as no duty reduction is allowed per Chapter 72 notes
