Import Tips
• Provide chemical composition analysis confirming 316L specs (16-18% Cr, 10-14% Ni, 2-3% Mo) to validate stainless steel status
• Ensure documentation specifies 'not in coils' and cold-rolled only; coiled versions fall under different subheadings
• Avoid rust/discoloration claims per Chapter note; no duty allowance for pre-entry surface issues
