Import Tips
• Include duplex certification and nickel analysis; >0.5% Ni distinguishes from lower-nickel stainless in adjacent subheadings
• Measure width post-processing - must exceed 1880 mm at entry to avoid downgrade to narrower width codes like 7219.22.00.30
• Beware rust/discoloration claims - no duty allowance per Chapter 72 note even if occurring pre-entry
