Import Tips

Provide mill test certificates confirming high-nickel content (typically >30%) to verify classification under 7228.30.80.05

Declare exact chemical composition and hot-rolling process; further surface treatments like polishing reclassify to 7228.70

Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring as tool steel; high-nickel alloys don't meet tool steel element criteria in chapter notes
