Import Tips
• Customs may require independent lab verification of chromium content for low-Cr declarations
• Document exact rolling process to confirm 'cold-rolled only' status versus hot-rolled precursors
• Beware of minimum thickness rules; very thin sheets risk reclassification if mistaken for foil
