Import Tips & Compliance

Verify stainless steel composition meets chapter definitions; provide mill test certificates confirming alloy grade

Measure width precisely before entry as <600 mm determines heading 7220 vs 7219; common pitfall is mismeasurement

Ensure not 'further worked' per chapter note (no polishing, coating); if coated, reclassify under different subheading
