Import Tips & Compliance

• Certify molybdenum content (2-3%) typical of 316L to distinguish from standard 304 and support value declaration

• Measure thickness precisely; values exactly 3mm may trigger disputes between 7219.22 and 7219.23 subheadings

• No duty allowance for pre-entry rust per Chapter 72 note; clean/condition properly before shipment
