Import Tips

Submit chemical analysis reports proving >0.5% nickel and stainless steel status to CBP for proper 7219 classification

Avoid common error of declaring as 'universal mill plate' - this requires specific rolling process and width 150-1250mm per US note (b)

Document hot-rolling process origin; re-rolled products may classify differently under GRI rules
