Import Tips
• Obtain mill test certificate verifying stainless steel composition and exact diameter under 0.25 mm to avoid reclassification
• Declare as 'not further worked' if only drawn; any plating or coating shifts to different subheadings
• Check for anti-dumping duties on specific stainless grades from certain origins like China or India
