Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificate confirming nickel content below 8% and stainless steel composition to avoid reclassification
• Measure and document maximum cross-sectional dimension exceeding 152.4 mm at entry to qualify for this specific subheading
• Ensure no further surface treatments beyond hot-rolling to prevent classification under 'further worked' categories
