Import Tips
• Submit chemical analysis report verifying molybdenum content for 316L grade to confirm stainless steel status
• Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring thickness; precise caliper measurements required at entry
• Check for any polishing or coating that triggers 'further worked' reclassification
