Import Tips
• Provide chemical composition certificate confirming <15% Cr to comply with subheading specification and prevent duty disputes
• Document cold-reduction process only; heat treatment before import may alter classification to different martensitic steel provisions
• Label coils clearly with dimensions to facilitate CBP inspection and avoid penalties for misdeclared thickness or width
