Import Tips
• Provide detailed alloy certification proving >0.5% nickel to distinguish from lower-nickel stainless under other subheadings
• Confirm hot-rolled state with no surface treatments like phosphatizing, as 'further worked' per Chapter notes moves to 7219.90
• Avoid misdeclaration of width exceeding 1575 mm, which shifts to broader 'other' category
