Import Tips
• Include chemical composition analysis proving >0.5% Ni and stainless steel status to prevent reclassification to non-stainless headings
• Declare exact thickness and flat-rolled form; coiled products may require different statistical reporting
• Avoid common pitfall of rust/discoloration claims—no duty reduction allowed per Chapter 72 note
