Import Tips
• Verify stainless steel composition meets AISI 304/316 standards with mill test certificates to confirm HTS classification
• Include forging process documentation to prove no post-forging machining, avoiding reclassification to machined flange subheadings
• Declare exact dimensions and weight accurately, as rough forgings often require statistical note reporting
