Import Tips & Compliance

Test for exact chromium (22%) and confirm not heat-resisting steel (<0.3%C, 4-10.5%Cr) per note (g)

Package to prevent rust; no duty reduction for pre-entry discoloration per Chapter note

For retail packs, consider if packaging changes classification to articles vs bulk wire
