Import Tips
• Certify at time of entry for intended chipper knife use if required, similar to razor blade steel note (d) practices
• Segregate from other tool steels in warehouse to prevent mixing during CBP inspection
• Use ISF filing with precise HTS and value to preempt bonding requirements for high-duty steel products
