Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificate (MTC) confirming chemical composition and mechanical properties to verify stainless steel grade and cold-rolled status
• Ensure accurate thickness measurement documentation as exceeding 1mm but under 3mm is critical for this subheading; common pitfall is misclassification to hot-rolled
• Declare coil weight and dimensions precisely to avoid valuation disputes; no duty reduction for surface rust per Chapter 72 notes
