Import Tips
• Provide mill test reports confirming 316 stainless steel to differentiate from lower grades and support duty rates
• Document that nuts match the bolt specifications and are shipped concurrently to meet 'with their nuts' criteria
• Watch for over-declaration of quantities; exact counts per shipment prevent valuation disputes
