Import Tips
• Provide chemical composition analysis from manufacturer to prove <15% Cr; stainless grades vary widely
• Label as 'cold-reduced' on invoices; hot-rolled equivalents classify differently
• Avoid bulk packaging confusion—retail lengths may need separate verification from industrial coils
