Import Tips
• Provide photos or samples showing forging imperfections to Customs for verification of 'not processed' status
• Ensure country-of-origin marking on forgings complies with stainless steel origin rules for duty preferences
• Avoid common pitfall of mixing with machined inventory; segregate shipments clearly
