Import Tips
• Submit chemical analysis reports to confirm 304 grade; CBP may test for chromium/nickel content
• Document slitting process doesn't constitute 'further working'; retain rolling mill records
• Avoid rust/discoloration claims at entry per chapter note—no duty allowance for pre-entry corrosion
